Agnolo Doni portrait in Pushkin museum (2016) by shakko 01

Agostino Beazzano, 1538:

Raphael, if the world wrote so much of Apelles
That perhaps it exceeds belief,
That not only was he first in painting,
But that his equal will never be born,
Yet I know not what would happen if he came
Now that the work of your color is seen:
You so well confound the true and the false
That one knows not which lives, and which is painted.
