The ''Portrait of Bishop Bernardo de' Rossi'' is a painting by the Italian High Renaissance painter Lorenzo Lotto, dating to 1505.

The portrait was brought to Parma by Bernardo de' Rossi when he fled there in 1524. Here it became part of the Farnese collection, which was transferred to Naples in 1760. ==Description== The painting shows the donor's bust from three-quarters, the face looking at the seer.
