Pietro Cesare Alberto - The profile portrait cannot be Pietro Cesare

I don’t know about a profile for Cesar Cremonini - it took me quite a while just to figure out the actual subject of the portrait. As to a replacement profile photo - perhaps the commemorative stone at Battery Park in NYC - the date is probably not quite right on it (June 2 for his arrival in New Amsterdam) but it’s close enough. I think it may already be attached to the profile?

Oh, and that other portrait - he’s not Pietro Cesare either. I’m just not sure yet which Alberti he is - perhaps Leon Battista Alberti the architect/writer? Will try to identify.

I added a photo of the plaque to the media folder - not sure how to replace the existing image. I misspoke - the one that appears now is not Leon Battista either - probably an earlier Alberti, wearing very nice armor. Perhaps from the Crusades era. If/when I identify him, will report back!

I have never seen a representation of Pietro or his wife in all the years ive been doing this. And, as to the ones being used are laughable to say the least. Many people assume way to much with no evidemce. Oh well it hsppens but.its
nice to have those who are vigilant to correct when yheycan. Dave Dieter

I changed pic.

Thanks!

The other portrait (a black & white line drawing or etching, 3/4 view of man in armor, with beard and aquiline nose) widely attached to Pietro Cesare Alberti is that of the explorer Giovanni da Verrazzano! Found it at britannica.com.

Unfortunately, both images are all over trees on MyHeritage, and I can’t message the owners without upgrading my account. This will probably continue to be a problem for a while. Thanks for your help here at least!
