Portrait of Urban VII is a 1596 oil by Jacopino del Conte, a Italian Renaissance work, held at Vatican Museums.
The painting depicts a man in a red robe and hat, with a white collar visible underneath. He is shown from the chest up, facing the viewer with a neutral expression. The man's attire is formal, with intricate details on the robe and hat. The background of the painting is dark, which helps to highlight the subject's features. This portrait is reminiscent of the work of artists who use chiaroscuro to create depth and contrast in their paintings.
