"Een Pers" is an anonymous watercolor painting from the late 17th or early 18th century depicting a Persian man wearing traditional clothing. The figure stands against a plain background, his striped robe and turban rendered with meticulous detail. The artwork, likely created during a time of European fascination with Eastern cultures, serves as a visual record of Persian attire and customs during this period. Its small size, approximately 320 mm by 200 mm, suggests it was a private work intended for personal contemplation or collection.
