I pulled a reference painting and tried to get each model to hit it with the same prompt. Watch how the skin tones and the light on the collar shift between versions. Also look at the background, the hills and the horse rider are way clearer in some models and nearly vanish in others. The reference is linked at the bottom of the post.

Prompt
Jan van Eyck + Piero della Francesca, where layered oil glazing creates luminous translucent surfaces through successive thin applications, and geometric form modeling produces solid volumes via measured light planes. The fusion manifests as fine texture detail, smooth tonal transitions, and atmospheric background depth, transforming any subject through precise surface handling. A man with long brown hair, light skin and blue eyes, wearing a black cap and a dark blue doublet with white collar and sleeve linings. Close-up at eye level, the man shown from the chest up, body turned three-quarters away to the left with head facing left and gaze directed off to the left. Scene set in an open landscape during daytime, featuring distant buildings, hills, trees and a small figure on horseback.

About this image
This iconic High Renaissance oil painting is Raphael's famous Portrait of Agnolo Doni, featuring a pensive fair-skinned man with long wavy brown hair, bright blue eyes, and a calm solemn expression. The subject wears a soft black cap, deep blue tunic, and delicate embroidered white linen collar, posed in three-quarter profile against a sunlit pastoral landscape. The atmospheric background includes a calm river, hilltop medieval castle, stone church, distant hazy mountains, and pale blue sky, rendered with the meticulous naturalism characteristic of Italian Renaissance old master art.
This is a fine example of early Renaissance portraiture, depicting a dignified fair-skinned man with long wavy brown hair and light blue eyes, wearing a soft black cap, deep teal robe, and white linen undergarments. The detailed background features a sunlit pastoral landscape with rolling green hills, a fortified medieval castle, walled town, distant mountain ranges, and a tiny horseback traveler on a winding dirt road. The painting uses soft, muted cool and earthy tones, with a calm, formal, contemplative mood typical of 16th century old master portraiture.
This iconic 16th century High Renaissance oil painting by Raphael depicts a solemn fair-skinned nobleman with long wavy brown hair, bright blue eyes, and a deep blue tunic, set against a meticulously rendered Italian countryside backdrop. The background features rolling green hills, distant medieval hilltop towns, hazy blue mountains, a tall leafy tree, and a tiny horseback traveler on a dirt road under a pale blue sky with soft scattered clouds. The work exhibits the characteristic luminous realism, balanced composition, and calm, dignified mood of classic Italian Renaissance portraiture.

and thank you for taking the time to comment.
that's totally understandable. It's hard to see someone lose a part of themselves so young. You must have been young when that happened. --They did a study of memory in seniors and college students. They found out that actually both forgot about the same amount. The major difference was the seniors stressed about forgetting and college students thought forgetting was not a big deal. it was an unintentional finding because they expected to find seniors forgot more and wasn't expecting the emotional findings. I do think I forget more tho. And like you, I worry about it.
definitely wasn't thinking that painting. I can't find it. closest I could come was Portrait of Baldassarre Castiglione . I think I saw it in person tho so next time I visit the city, I'll check the museum. Hopefully it's not something I saw back in California. But it's bugging me now because I can remember it but I can't remember who did it. or even if it was 1400s or 1500s. If I'm right, may not be a super famous artist but just an artist of that time period. I doubt that museum could afford the big guns.
you're probably right. it could just be amalgamation. i think it bothered me to not remember because as I get older, I worry about my memory. I used to take it so much for granted
Did the painting ref look like #2? That one looks so familiar. Love the painting styles on all of these. The styles feel like they span from 1400s to 1800s
