"Portret van een man, mogelijk Nicolaas de Vicq" is an etching by Dutch artist Jan Verkolje, created between 1660 and 1693. The artwork depicts a man in an oval frame with a powdered wig, intricate lace collar and a richly embroidered robe. Verkolje was a master of portraiture and this etching is a testament to his skill in capturing both the likeness and the dignity of his sitter. The inscription at the bottom suggests that the sitter might be Nicolaas de Vicq, a Dutch gentleman of the 17th century. The etching is small in size, measuring 311 mm by 233 mm, but its details are clear and the composition well-balanced.
