In this enigmatic portrait by Titian, we see Cardinal Filippo Archinto, obscured by a lace curtain. The curtain represents the political difficulties that Archinto faced after he was appointed archibishop of Milan. His ring, which we can see clearly, symbolizes the archbishop's legal right to office. What other symbolism do you see?
