description: <p>This portrait's intimate scale and green background are characteristic of French Renaissance painter Corneille de Lyon. The naturalistic details of the sitter's hands resting on his belt and the hairs of his red beard are rendered through a technique of layering thin glazes made popular in France by the artist François Clouet. Born in the Netherlands, Corneille established an artistic practice in Lyon, which had developed into a major mercantile center, attracting artists of diverse nationalities as well as a bourgeois clientele.</p>
