Giovanni Antonio Boltraffio

Giovanni Antonio Boltraffio (1467–1516) was a gifted painter of the Milanese Renaissance and one of the most talented pupils of Leonardo da Vinci. Working within Leonardo’s circle, Boltraffio absorbed his master’s techniques of sfumato, anatomical precision, and psychological depth, adapting them into a refined personal style.

His most famous works include the Madonna and Child (National Gallery, London), the Resurrection of Christ, and the celebrated Portrait of a Young Man (Pinacoteca di Brera, Milan). These paintings reveal Boltraffio’s skill in blending Leonardesque softness with clarity of form and devotional serenity. His portraits, in particular, stand out for their quiet dignity and lifelike presence.
