Portrait of Doge Leonardo Loredan

Portrait of Doge Leonardo Loredan is an oil on poplar panel painting by the Italian Renaissance master Giovanni Bellini, made around 1501 to 1502 and measuring about 61.6 by 45.1 centimeters. It depicts Leonardo Loredan, who served as Doge of Venice from 1501 to 1521, wearing official state robes with ornate buttons and the distinctive corno ducale ceremonial hat over a linen cap, in a composition that recalls a Roman sculpted portrait bust. The artist's Latin name, Ioannes Bellinvs, is inscribed on a small painted paper element, a cartellino, at the base of the composition. It is held at the National Gallery in London.
