Getty Museum Studies on Art series. Monograph. A masterpiece of Italian Mannerism, Pontormo's painting of the Halberdier is a poignant image of a heroic youth. But is this proud and beautiful youth the Florentine duke Cosimo I de' Medici, or is he Frencesco Guardi, unknown to history except for Vasari's mention that he was painted by Pontormo during the harrowing seige of Florence in 1529-302? The author examines the many problems surrounding this mysterious portrait, discovering new possibilities of meaning within the volatile politics of the period. Pictorial cardwraps. B/w & colour illustrations. 132 pages. ISBN: 0892363665. A very nice copy.
