Francisco Cornaro is a 1706 ink by John Smith, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This is a portrait of a man with long, curly hair and a lace-trimmed collar. He is wearing a patterned jacket with ruffles on the sleeves. The background is dark, which makes the subject stand out. The man's face is serious, and he is looking directly at the viewer. His hair is styled in loose curls that fall down his back. The lace on his collar is intricate and adds a touch of elegance to the overall image. The use of chiaroscuro in this painting creates a sense of depth and dimensionality, drawing the viewer's eye to the subject's face. The artist's skillful use of light and shadow adds to the overall impact of the portrait. The artist is Smith, John.
