Portrait of Giovanni della Volta with his Wife and Children
Portrait of Giovanni della Volta with his Wife and Children is a 1515 portrait by Lorenzo Lotto, now in the National Gallery, London, to which it was left by Miss Sarah Solly (the daughter of Edward Solly in 1879.[1]
It is an oil painting on canvas depicting the Venetian merchant Giovanni della Volta with his family. The artist's account books record a painting of that man and his family which was probably given as part-payment of rent he owed when he moved in 1547.
