Description Argyropoulos (detail) Calling of the Apostles.JPG |
English:
John Argyropoulos (1415-1487) as depicted by Domenico Ghirlandaio in 1481.
Argyropulus is among the Florentines, the old man with a short white beard, and his head covered by a black brimmed hat. The Greek John Argyropulus, born in Constantinople but driven out by the Turks in 1453, had found refuge in Florence, in the cultivated circle of the Medici, whose guest he was for fifteen years. He had held the professorship of Greek at the university of Florence and Lorenzo il Magnifico had made him a citizen of Florence, which had become the city of his choice. When Argyropulus was called to Rome by Sixtus IV, he continued to regard himself as a Florentine and as such, with the others, Ghirlandaio portrayed him.
العربية:
جون أرجيروبولوس (1415-1487) كما صوره دومينيكو غيرلاندايو في عام 1481. أرجيروبولوس هو من بين الفلورنسيين، رجل عجوز ذو تعبير غاضب ووجه ضعيف إلى حد ما محاط بلحية بيضاء قصيرة، ورأسه مغطى بلحية غريبة قاسية. وُلد اليوناني جون أرجيروبولوس في القسطنطينية ولكن طرده الأتراك عام 1453، وجد ملاذًا في فلورنسا، في دائرة ميديتشي الزراعية، التي كان ضيفًا فيها لمدة خمسة عشر عامًا. كان قد شغل الأستاذية اليونانية في جامعة فلورنسا وجعله لورنزو إل ماجنيفيكو من مواطني فلورنسا، التي أصبحت المدينة التي اختارها. عندما استدعاه سيكتوس الرابع إلى روما، استمر في اعتبار نفسه فلورنسيًا وعلى هذا النحو، مع الآخرين، صوره غيرلاندايو.
