## Artwork

- Artist: [ROBUSTI, Domenico](<https://beta.wga.hu/artists/robusti-domenico-r3979e6607ef2d7>)
- Date: 1551-1600
- Technique: Mosaic

## Commentary

Comparison with the late self-portrait shows that the figure on the left in the background of The Presentation of Christ in the Temple is recognizably a portrait of Jacopo Tintoretto. By integrating a portrait of his father in the design for the mosaic, Domenico gave him an honourable memorial in his own lifetime near the altar of San Marco.
