JACOMETTO (JACOMETTO VENEZIANO). Portrait of a Young Man

Portrait of a Young Man. Artist: Jacometto (Jacometto Veneziano) (Italian, active Venice by ca. 1472-died before 1498). Dimensions: 11 x 8 1/4 in. (27.9 x 21 cm). Date: 1480s.
A brilliant miniature painter, Jacometto was also outstanding at portraits. He was much influenced by the Sicilian painter Antonello da Messina, who worked in Venice in 1475-76, but Jacometto's portraits have a crystalline clarity, enhanced by the black background. The distinctive hairstyle--a zazzera--was fashionable in Venice in the 1480s and 90s.
