Portrait of Pope Paul III (or Portrait of Pope Paul III Without Cap) is an oil on canvas portrait by Titian of Pope Paul III, produced during the pope's visit to Northern Italy, in 1543. [1] It is in the collection of the Museo di Capodimonte , in Naples .
Paul III's artistic and architectural commissions were numerous and varied. The Venetian artist Titian painted a portrait of the pope in 1543, and in 1546, the well-known portrait of Paul III with his grandsons Cardinal Alessandro Farnese and Ottavio Farnese, Duke of Parma. Both are now in the Capodimonte Museum in Naples.
This work and the Portrait of Pier Luigi Farnese were both demoted to studio-work status due to their poor condition, [2] but a major mid 20th century restoration and investigation of the Portrait of Pope Paul III with Camauro placed its colours on new supports and reconfirmed the work's autograph status.
