The Lute Player

History

In 1899 Adolfo Venturi adjudged the work to be "too high quality to be by Cariani", but Wilhelm von Bode attributed it to Cariani. von Bode acquired it from a private collection for its present owner in 1890[2] Since then it has also been attributed to Giorgione or in 1932 by some art historians to Palma il Vecchio, but is now seen as sharing all the basic characteristics of works securely attributed to Cariani[3]
