E' fatto più giorni sono, similissimo, da mano eccellente : il ritratto-icona di Galileo / Federico Tognoni.
Abstract:
This article examines the many iconographic portrayals of Galileo made during the 17th century: paintings, engravings, medals and busts, either previously unknown or with new suggestions as to the authorship, document the fortune of one of the protagonists of 17th century. In particular, the article aims at underlining a new interpretation of Galileo's portrait painted by Justus Sustermans, now in the Uffizi Gallery
