The portrait of a young man sitting on a carpet by rosso fiorentino is a painting (oil on panel, 120 x 86 cm) part of the farnese collection, now in naples in the national museum of capodimonte (inv. Q 112), in the farnese gallery. It depicts an unknown young man, sitting on a table covered with a precious turkish cloth. In the background, details of the interior emerge, such as the architectural frame of the fireplace, the tapestry or the byzantine icon, which suggest a typically humanistic setting. The quick drafting then gives the subject an unfinished appearance which increases its emotional intensity, particularly evident in the hands with elongated and hooked fingers. Object Type: painting. Genre: portrait. Date: 1525. Dimensions: height: 120 cm (47.2 in) ; width: 86 cm (33.8 in). Collection: National Museum of Capodimonte. Rosso fiorentino, ritratto di giovane seduto con tappetoi
