Description: | A middle-aged man dressed in black is seen half-length, at a three-quarter angle, against a dark brown background, his eyes scrutinising the viewer. The golden buttons on his costume and the striking white lace ruff which frames the face relieve the subdued palette. The face, characterised by a large forehead, brown eyes, a moustache and a distinctive pointed beard, is meticulously rendered. Judging from the clothes, the sitter is a well-to-do citizen of the Netherlands. | Subjects: | portrait | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Dutch School Æ Attributed to manner of Attributed to manner of Flemish School | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8476... | Go to resource |
