Cap de copil is an unspecified by Paolo Veronese, held at Brukenthal National Museum.
This is a close-up portrait of a young boy with light hair and a serious expression. He’s wearing a dark, fur-trimmed collar that stands out against his pale skin. The background is plain and dark, so all the focus stays on his face. Notice how the light hits his cheek and forehead, making them glow while the shadows under his chin stay deep. That’s a trick artists use to make faces look real. Check out *sfumato*—it’s how Veronese softened edges in his work.
