Daniel Barbaro

(Barbaro, Daniel, 1514-1570)

Daniele Barbaro is depicted in clerical vestments with a greyish-purple cape and bishop’s three-cornered hat as patriarch (1550). Seated at his writing table, the prelate is portrayed in a meditative mood with two volumes of his Vitruvius in front of him, which he translated and which were illustrated by Andrea Palladio. The painting is one of the most fascinating and vivid works bearing witness to erudite Christian Humanism in 16th-century Venice. with books on architecture by the ancient Roman ,
