Portrait of a Man 1723

This oil-on-canvas portrait of an unidentified man was painted in 1723 by Cornelis Troost, a Dutch painter known for his portraits and genre scenes. The painting depicts the subject in a three-quarter length pose, wearing a white wig and a red robe. The background suggests an indoor setting, perhaps a grand library or study. This portrait is a fine example of Troost's work, showcasing his attention to detail and his ability to capture the personality of his subjects. The painting is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
