This impressive portrait was once ascribed to Ferdinand Bol (1616–1680), until Sturla Gudlaugsson more plausibly proposed Bailly (see Blankert 1982). It is compositionally similar to and consistent in quality and handling with two other works by Bailly: the Portrait of Anthony de Wale, Professor of Theology at the University of Leiden of 1636 (Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam) and the Portrait of an Unknown Professor or Pastor, signed and dated 1642 (Van Heeckeren van Wassenaer collection, Kasteel Twickel)

This arresting portrait of an unidentified young Florentine is dated by most scholars to the 1530s. During that decade Bronzino was often engaged in painting members of a close-knit circle of acquaintances with whom he shared literary interests, and this sitter—who so conspicuously holds open a book—may be from among that group
