This evocative portrait from the Spanish School of the 15th century captures Antonio di Leva, Duke of Terranova and Prince of Ascoli, in a distinguished bust profile. Rendered with oil on canvas, the painting portrays the Duke with a commanding presence, adorned in a richly detailed fur-trimmed coat with slashed sleeves and a distinguished hat. The artists meticulous attention to detail is evident in the Dukes well-groomed beard and the subtle play of light on his attire. A heraldic coat of arms is prominently displayed in the upper right corner, underscoring the Dukes noble lineage. Signed by the artist, this piece is a compelling example of period portraiture, combining historical significance with exquisite craftsmanship.
