Portrait of a Young Man Wearing a White Cap 1718

"Portrait of a Young Man Wearing a White Cap" is a painting by German artist Balthasar Denner, created in 1718. The painting depicts a young man with a shaved head wearing a white cap, with his face rendered in minute detail, capturing every wrinkle and imperfection. This realistic style is characteristic of Denner's work, and this painting is a prime example of his highly skilled technique in capturing lifelike detail, which was popular during the Baroque period. The painting is currently housed at the Statens Museum for Kunst in Copenhagen.
