Carlo III (1486-1553), duke of Savoy, often called 'il Buono' ('the good'). Carlo was a younger son of of Filippo II (see ref. 41068), who having spent much of his life without possessions, unexpectedly became duke shortly before his death owing to the death in childhood of Carlo II (see ref. 41067). This made Carlo duke following the death of his father's half-brother Filiberto II in 1504. After France invaded Savoy in 1535 and held almost all of Carlo's possessions, he spent the rest of his life in near-exile. After F.J. de Lange, it is one of the 33 portraits of the Dukes of Savoy engraved by Georges Tasnière for 'Augustae Regiæque Sabaudæ domus arbor gentilitia', 1702.
