PORTRAIT OF PRINCES VITTORIO AMEDEO (1587-1637), EMANUELE FILIBERTO (1588- 1624) AND FILIPPO EMANUELE (1586-1605) OF SAVOY Circa 1592/95 Jan Kraek, called Giovanni Caracca, (active 1567-1607) Dutch School. This portrait of the Princes of Savoy shows the sons of Duke Carlo Emanuele I of Savoy on one occasion linked to the complex vicissitudes of Carlo Emanuele I's alliance with his father-in-law Felipe II, King of Spain and grandfather of the children. They belong, on their mother's side (children of the Spanish infanta Catalina Micaela) to the Habsburg family. The Savoy dynastic belonging of those portrayed is based on the Savoy knot that is repeated twice on the dog's collar. An inscription on a piece of paper on the back of the painting states: "The signature is on the dog's collar"
