Giuseppe Milani (Fontanellato, 1716 (?) - Cesena, 1798) - Oil on canvas; cm 110 x 80
This portrait, dated 1794, comes from the Town Hall and it was carried out by Giuseppe Milani for cardinal Aurelio Roverella, as we can see from the inscription AVRELIVS ROVERELLA
on the scroll.
Here Milani represents the subject in a realistic and natural way, with a solemn look and majestic carriage.
Moreover, he holds a document in his hands and he wears clothes which emphasize his illustrious authority.
