    Artwork

    Shown from the hips up, a man hands a piece of paper to a young man as a third, bearded man looks on in this horizontal group portrait painting. All three have pale, peachy skin. To our right, a man wears a red cardinal’s cap, elbow-length red cape, and a white robe over a red garment, which is visible through a slit over one hip and at the cuffs. The cardinal faces our left in profile and looks straight into the distance. His blond hair curls across the nape of his neck under the cap. He has a gently bumped nose, and his thin lips are closed. He hands a folded piece of white paper to the young man to our left, who faces the cardinal, also in profile. The young man has blue eyes, chin-length red hair, pink cheeks, and paler skin than the other two. He wears a black, long-sleeved jacket with voluminous sleeves. The third man stands between the two and looks at the cardinal with gray eyes under low brows. That man has a pointed nose, slight bags under his eyes, chin-length brown hair, and a trimmed beard. The collar of a white undergarment is visible over the straight neckline of a black garment, and a forest-green cloak, lined with rust-brown, hangs over his shoulders. The two older two men stand in front of a dark green curtain and the boy in front of a landscape with green below and white clouds in the blue sky above.
