                            ABBATE NICOLO DELL (Continued from)  - Lot 31
                        
                        ABBATE NICOLO DELL (Continued from) 
Modena 1590 (1512?) - Fontainebleau (Paris?) 1571 
Bust portrait of a gentleman 
Oil on canvas (Rentoilage; restorations) 
H. 77 - W. 62 cm 
Beautiful Italian frame in wood and gilded stucco in Renaissance style with a motif of foliage scrolls and volutes (small accidents). 
Compare this with the portrait of a young man (Canvas; 32 x 25 cm) from the sixteenth-century Emilian School (Christie's Roma, 7 April 1987, No. 71) brought together by Federico Zeri with Nicolo dell'Abate (Photo library of the Zeri Foundation, No. 71). 
N° 87094. Foto INVN 9168). 
Note that the left hand with slightly flattened fingers in our portrait has a motif close to that of Niccolo dell Abbate in his Portrait of a Young Man with a Book, of similar dimensions (Wood; 72 x 63 cm) from the Capodimonte Museum in Naples (Cf. Catalogue of the Museo di Capodmonte, Mariella Utili, p. 179, inv. Q 1138 - Milano 2002).
