With inscription on recto: Fra Piero Antonio Pitti The following technical sheet of the work was created by Professor Sandro Bellesi as part of the inventory of the paintings of the Fattoria Franceschini. The painting, depicting a Dominican monk belonging to the Pitti family holding a book in his right hand, appears to be attributable for typological and stylistic data to the Florentine School of the early seventeenth century. Of rather modest quality, the work shows faint references to the language of Tuscan painters who came from the schools of Alessandro Allori and Cigoli.
