17th century ITALIAN school, workshop of Scipione PULZONE Portrait of Pope Pius V Canvas 133 x 105 cm Inscribed upper left Pio V PM Pulzone and his studio produced several versions of this popular composition depicting Pope Pius V, with variations in dimensions and background elements. The main full-length version, executed by Pulzone, is considered to be the original copy in the Palazzo Colonna in Rome, and does not include the table or crucifix on the right. Pius V, born Antonio Michele Ghislieri, was Pope from 1566 to 1572. A major figure of the Counter-Reformation, he rigorously applied the decisions of the Council of Trent, reinforcing the authority of the Catholic Church in the face of Protestantism. He is also known for his support of the victorious Holy League at the Battle of Lepanto in 1571 against the Ottoman Empire. Canonized in 1712, he remains one of the great reforming popes of the 16th century.
