OTTAVIO MARIA LEONI, PORTRAIT OF A YOUNG MAN, BLACK AND WHITE CHALK ON BLUE GREY PAPER, DATED 1615
Leoni was one of the most eminent portraitists in the first quarter of the 17th century in Rome. He worked for popes and the foremost Roman families, such as the Medici and the Barberini. His portraits from life represent both the Roman aristocracy and foreign dignitaries as well as artist and friends (F. Solinas, Ottavio Leoni (1578-1630). Les Portraits de Berlin, Rome, 2013, pp. 7-39).
