Portrait of Ulisse Aldrovandi is a 1593 oil by Agostino Carracci, a Mannerism work, held at Accademia Carrara.
This portrait depicts a man with a serious expression, dressed in a black robe with a high, ruffled white collar. He holds a bundle of papers in his right hand. The man's attire and the style of the painting suggest a formal, professional setting. The artist has used oil paint to create a detailed and realistic image. The painting's style and technique are reminiscent of the work of Agostino Carracci, an Italian painter known for his portraits and religious scenes.
