| Description |
English: Portrait of a Man
known as David Rizzio (1540-1566). "The inscription identifies the sitter as Rizzio and dates the portrait to 1565, a year before his murder. This inscription was presumably added (in hope) some time after the portrait was painted, for the costume here belongs to the 1620s." |
