🖼 Portrait of Tommaso Inghirami, 1510-14
Oil on wood
90 × 63 cm

Soft modeling and warm ochre tones reveal a Renaissance humanist in three-quarter view, his gaze penetrating yet contemplative. Inghirami's prominent eyes and refined features exemplify Raphael's psychological portraiture, establishing the humanist intellectual as a worthy subject for grand artistic treatment.
