Description
English: Half-length portrait of Galileo originally painted in Florence, Italy, in 1636 by Justus Sustermans. After it was finished, the painting was sent to a friend of Galileo's in Paris, but was soon returned to Florence and the Uffizi collection circa 1678. A number of copies were made of this painting, and reside in various collections. It is often grouped together with another portrait of Galileo also painted by Sustermans, circa 1640. Compared to the 1640 version showing Galileo sitting in a chair, this painting likely portrays him standing, dressed in a black doublet with a higher white collar of a different style. His torso is turned slightly to the right but with the head turning left and looking slightly upward.[1]
