===Paintings=== [[File:Felipe IV offers Ferdinand to Glory.jpg|thumb| ''Felipe II offers Prince Fernando to Victory'' by [[Titian]], {{Circa|1572–1575}}, [[Museo del Prado]], Madrid]] There are many pictorial representations of the battle. Prints of the order of battle appeared in Venice and Rome in 1571.<ref>anonymous chalcography, 1571, Museo Civico Correr, Museo di Storia Navale, Venice; ''Vero retratto del armata Christiana et Turchesca in ordinanza [...] dove li nostri ebero la gloriosa vitoria tra Lepanto [...]'', 1571; ''Il vero ordine et modo tenuto dalle Chistiana et turchescha nella bataglia, che fu all. 7.

Jar verloffen / eigentlich fürgerissen / und warhafftig beschrieben'', Strasbourg, 1572; cited after Rudolph (2012).</ref> Numerous paintings were commissioned, including one in the [[Doge's Palace, Venice]], by [[Andrea Vicentino]] on the walls of the ''Sala dello Scrutinio'', which replaced [[Tintoretto]]'s ''Victory of Lepanto'', destroyed by fire in 1577. [[Titian]] painted the battle in the background of an allegorical work showing Philip II of Spain holding his infant son, [[Ferdinand, Prince of Asturias|Don Fernando]], his male heir born shortly after the victory, on 4 December 1571. An angel descends from heaven bearing a palm branch with a motto for Fernando, who is held up by Philip: "Majora tibi" (may you achieve greater deeds; Fernando died as a child, in 1578).<ref>Robert Enggass and Jonathan Brown, ''Italian and Spanish Art, 1600–1750: Sources and Documents'' (1992), p. 213.</ref> ''The Allegory of the Battle of Lepanto'' (c. 1572, oil on canvas, 169 x 137 cm, [[Gallerie dell'Accademia]], [[Venice]]) is a painting by [[Paolo Veronese]]. The lower half of the painting shows the events of the battle, whilst at the top a female personification of [[Venice]] is presented to the [[Virgin Mary]], with [[James the Great|Saint James Major]] (patron of Spain), [[Saint Peter]] (patron of the Papal States), [[Justina of Padua|Saint Justina]] (patron of Padua), [[Saint Mark]] (patron of Venice), and a group of angels in attendance.{{citation needed|date=October 2018}} A painting by [[Wenceslas Cobergher]], dated to the end of the 16th century, now in [[San Domenico Maggiore]], shows what is interpreted as a victory procession in Rome on the return of admiral Colonna. On the stairs of Saint Peter's Basilica, Pius V is visible in front of a kneeling figure, identified as Marcantonio Colonna returning the standard of the Holy League to the pope. On high is the Madonna and child with victory palms.<ref>''Flemish Masters and Other Artists: Foreign Artists from the Heritage of the Fondo Edifici Di Culto Del Ministero Dell'interno'' (2008), [https://books.google.com/books?id=-5T91jgvbUMC&pg=PA83 p. 83].</ref> [[Tommaso Dolabella]] painted his ''The Battle of Lepanto'' in c. 1625–1630 on the commission of [[Stanisław Lubomirski (1583–1649)|Stanisław Lubomirski]], commander of the Polish left wing in the [[Battle of Khotyn (1621)]]. The monumental painting (3.05 m × 6.35 m) combines the Polish victory procession following this battle with the backdrop of the Battle of Lepanto. It was later owned by the Dominicans of [[Poznań]] and since 1927 has been on display in [[Wawel Castle]], [[Kraków]].<ref>Anna Misiag-Bochenska, ''Historia obrazu Tomasza Dolabelli Bitwa pod Lepanto'', ''Nautologia'' 3.1/2 (1968/9), 64–65.
