Il Bronzino
Italian painter
Agnolo di Cosimo (November 17, 1503 – November 23, 1572), usually known as Il Bronzino, or Agnolo Bronzino (mistaken attempts also have been made in the past to assert his name was Agnolo Tori and even Angelo (Agnolo) Allori), is an Italian Mannerist painter from Florence.
The origin of his nickname, Bronzino is unknown, but could derive from his dark complexion, or from that he gives many of his portrait subjects.
