Original Dimensions: 30 1/2" x 24 1/4"
Location: The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York
About Artwork: (ca. 1670–71) "Gaulli was closely associated with the great sculptor Bernini, who finished his Altar of the Sacrament in Saint Peter’s for Clement X. In this portrait, Gaulli was equally inspired by Bernini, who later carved a portrait bust of the pope, and Velázquez, whose celebrated portrait of Clement’s predecessor, Innocent X, he is known to have copied. Clement X is depicted in winter garb, wearing a fur lined hat (camauro) and sumptuous cape (mozzetta). Like portraits of kings, papal portraits were prized diplomatic gifts, often made in multiples and widely circulated; this is the finest of seven known versions." - (The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York)
