Cardinal of Portugal's Altarpiece

The Cardinal of Portugal's Altarpiece (Italian: Pala del cardinale del Portogallo), or the Altarpiece for the Cardinal of Portugal's Chapel, is a painting of c. 1466 in tempera and oil on panel by one or both of the brothers Antonio and Piero del Pollaiuolo. It was painted for the altar in the Cardinal of Portugal's Chapel, a funerary chapel in the church of San Miniato al Monte in Florence, built for the prince and cardinal James of Portugal, who died in exile in Florence in 1459 at the age of 26.

The painting is now in the Uffizi in Florence, with a copy in place in the chapel. Aspects of the painting reflect and connect with the setting it was made for, an elaborate newly-built funerary chapel, which in the Renaissance Republic of Florence aspired to revive the imperial style of many centuries before, drawing on the Late Antique monuments of Ravenna.
