The artwork titled “Allegory of Faith” was created by the artist Tintoretto around the year 1564. Executed in oil on canvas, this piece belongs to the Mannerism (Late Renaissance) art movement. It is an allegorical painting and measures 90 x 190 cm.
In the artwork, a figure is depicted in a reclining posture, draped in an opulent red garment. The subject holds an ornate chalice aloft in one hand, symbolizing faith or a spiritual offering. The background is characterized by swirling ethereal forms, possibly representing divine light or a celestial phenomenon. The artist’s use of rich colors and dramatic contrast underscores the allegorical nature of the painting, reflecting the stylistic tendencies of the Mannerist movement.
