Morning Modelbuch (11/30/2018)

A second Bronzino portrait of a young man in black with an interesting white collar. This one has whitework embroidery similar to patterns in Gulfferich _Modelbu?ch neuw aller art Nehens un? Stickers_ I love the hemstitching and the little mouse teeth edging. I have linked the Met’s earlier copy of Gulfferich previously so here is the 1562 version held by the Getty for a change https://archive.org/details/modelbuchneuwall00unse

The portrait is at the UK National Gallery on loan from a private collection. I’ve used a download from Wikipedia, but linked the gallery https://www.nationalgallery.org.uk/paintings/bronzino-portrait-of-a-young-man
