Whether the depicted person is Alessandro Contarini, is unclear. The Contarini belonged to the most prominent of Venetian noble families of the 16th century. Alessandro Contarini had a long and successful naval career, becoming steward and captain general of the Venetian armed forces. On 28 June 1538 he was made procurator of San Marco. Possible portraits include one attributed to Titian (or his workshop) in Munich, Alte Pinakothek and one by the workshop of Jacopo Tintoretto in Venice, Galleria dell’Accademia.
