EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, titled "Male Portrait with Putti" is a stunning example of the artistic brilliance of Matteo di Giuliano di Lorenzo Balducci. Created around 1510-15, this tempera on pine masterpiece measures 54.5x111 cm and currently resides in the prestigious Lindenau Museum in Altenburg, Germany. The focal point of the painting is undoubtedly the male figure at its center. With an enigmatic expression and commanding presence, he gazes directly at the viewer, drawing us into his world. Surrounding him are three charming putti or cherubs, who seem to be engaged in conversation or perhaps whispering secrets into his ear. The artist's attention to detail is evident throughout this work. From the intricate scroll held by one of the putti to their delicate wings and chubby cheeks, every element adds depth and character to this composition. Balducci's use of tempera on pine creates a luminous effect that enhances both texture and color. The warm tones used for the male figure's skin contrast beautifully with the soft pastel hues employed for the cherubs' rosy complexions. This print captures not only Balducci's technical skill but also his ability to convey emotion through portraiture. It invites viewers to ponder upon questions about identity and relationships between humans and celestial beings. Whether you are an art enthusiast or simply appreciate beauty captured on canvas, this Male Portrait with Putti will surely captivate your imagination as it has done for centuries
