Portret van een zittende jongeman 1600 - 1750

This anonymous portrait, likely created sometime between 1600 and 1750, depicts a young man in a richly patterned doublet and hose, sitting before a window. The subject's pose and clothing suggest a person of wealth and status, perhaps a member of the aristocracy or merchant class. The use of a single, monochromatic brown wash creates a sense of depth and realism, highlighting the subject's features and the folds of fabric. This artwork, measuring 297 mm in height and 254 mm in width, exemplifies the style of portraiture prevalent during the Baroque period, capturing the essence of an individual within a carefully composed setting.
