English: This imaginary portrait of a classical poet was part of a series of nine celebrated poets painted for the ducal court at Mantua. Following Caravaggio’s lead, Fetti chose as his model an ordinary man, depicted without idealisation and with a strong physical presence. The poet is portrayed as a mature man with a weather-beaten face and an inward-looking expression. His balding head is crowned with laurels, since antiquity a mark of distinction reserved for the victor, whether emperor or poet. A soft light is focused on the sensitively modelled face and powerful hands. Fetti brings to life the inspired poet beneath the coarse exterior, offering the viewer a portrait of the classical poet as intensely human as it is distinctly unheroic. Fantasiporträttet av en antik poet utfördes vid hovet i Mantua som del av en serie om nio berömda poeter. Inspirerad av Caravaggio valde Fetti som sin modell en man av folket, avbildad utan idealisering och med en stark kroppslig närvarokänsla. Poeten porträtteras som en mogen man med väderbitet ansikte och ett inåtvänt uttryck. Hans nakna hjässa pryds av en lagerkrans, sedan antiken en utmärkelse förbehållen såväl segerherre som poet. Ljuset koncentreras till mannens känsligt modellerade ansikte och de kraftiga händerna. Fetti bjuder betraktaren en djupt mänsklig bild av den inspirerade poeten under den opolerade ytan.
