Retrato de um membro da família Wedigh, provavelmente Hermann Wedigh (morreu em 1560)

1532
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 612
A pessoa retratada aqui, cujo anel mostra o brasão da família Wedigh de Colônia, é provavelmente Hermann von Wedigh III, um membro da empresa mercantil londrina Steelyard. O pedaço de papel inserido no pequeno livro de oração mostra um trecho da comédia Andria de Terêncio: “Veritas odium parit” ou “A verdade gera o ódio”. Estas palavras servem como referência ao conteúdo do livro e, provavelmente, até mesmo um lema pessoal do personagem retratado.
