Portrait of Alessandro Vittoria

The Portrait of Alessandro Vittoria is an oil on canvas painting created by Italian painter Giovanni Battista Moroni, in 1551–1552.

The canvas depicts a young man identified with the Italian sculptor Alessandro Vittoria, based on the numerous works that portrayed him.

Moroni was in the city at the time of the Council of Trento, to paint the portraits of the two Madruzzo brothers and other personalities who were attending the event.

[5] The painting was later part of an art collection that was meant to be sold in England in 1636 by the Earl of Denbigh, ambassador in Venice, to his brother-in-law, the Duke of Hamilton.

It turns out that in 1651 they were owned by the Archduke Leopold Wilhelm of Austria, as listed in the documentation of 1659, when however the current one was wrongly attributed to Titian.
