Sanctus Simeon

Marco Alvise Pitteri after Giovanni Battista Piazzetta

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a man in a three-quarter profile from the shoulders up. He has a full beard and short hair, wearing a draped garment. His head is slightly bowed and turned to the side. His posture suggests he is holding an object with both hands. The background has a textured pattern and the image is bordered with a decorative frame line. The inscription below the image reads "Sanctus Simeon." Below the title, it attributes the artwork to Jo. Batta Piazzetta and mentions that it is part of a print series.
