ITALIAN school of the late 16th century - Lot 10
ITALIAN school of the late 16th century Presumed portrait of Michel de Notresdame, known as Nostradamus Canvas. Unframed, restorations 71 x 59 cm Nostradamus was a 16th-century French apothecary and physician, best known for his Prophecies, a collection of quatrains published as early as 1555. His texts, often obscure and symbolic, have been interpreted as foretelling various historical events. Known portraits, often engravings or paintings made after his death, show him dressed in dark Renaissance garb. Seated at his desk, pen in hand, he appears as a scholar or prophet. These images helped shape his image as a mysterious visionary, associated with his famous prophecies and enduring cultural legacy. [RM]
