The painting was probably designed to record Bracci’s importance and to show how, as chancery official, he attended Ippolito de’ Medici in person. It is likely that Bracci commissioned the picture given his prominence and that the Cardinal is not painted from life, but copied from a portrait by Titian of 1532–3 (now in the Palazzo Pitti, Florence).
