This oil sketch would have been shown to the sitter, Diego Pignatelli, Duke of Terranova, for approval before work was begun on the finished portrait, which is life-size. The duke wears the robes and collar of the order of the Golden Fleece, conferred on him in 1731 by the Hapsburg Emperor Charles VI. Pignatelli was a prince of the Holy Roman Empire and remained faithful to the Austrians even after rulership of Naples passed to the French Bourbons. Solimena was the outstanding painter of eighteenth-century Naples, with a European reputation.

What product materials can I pick?
The product dropdown menu provides you with the opportunity to choose your favorite material and size. You can choose your your favorite size and material among the following options:
- Printed acrylic glass (with real glass coating on top): The print on acrylic glass, often referred to as a plexiglass print, will convert your chosen original into wonderful décor. Your own replica of the artwork is made with the help of modern UV print machines. The major advantage of an acrylic glass print is that contrasts plus granular painting details will be exposed because of the very subtle tonal gradation in the print.
- Aluminium print (aluminium dibond): These are metal prints on aluminium dibond with an impressive depth effect. For our Print On Aluminum Dibond, we print the selected work of art onto the aluminium white-primed surface. The bright and white parts of the artwork shimmer with a silky gloss, however without the glow.
- Canvas print: The printed canvas material stretched on a wooden frame. A canvas generates the distinctive look of three-dimensionality. Hanging a canvas print: Canvas prints are relatively low in weight, which means that it is easy and straightforward to hang your Canvas print without the use of extra wall-mounts. That is why, a canvas print is suitable for all types of walls.
- The poster print (canvas material): A poster print is a UV printed flat canvas with a fine surface structure, that reminds the actual artwork. It is best used for framing your fine art print in a custom frame. Please bear in mind, that depending on the absolute size of the poster we add a white margin of approximately 2-6cm around the painting to facilitate the framing with a custom frame.
