Nicolaes Maes was a Dutch Golden Age painter known for his portraits and genre scenes. This painting depicts a gentleman with a long, curly wig in a dark, somber setting. He is positioned against a background that suggests a landscape, and his pose leans against a sculpted relief of a cherubic figure, adding a layer of symbolic depth to the artwork. This painting exemplifies the refined style of portraiture popular in the Netherlands during Maes' lifetime.
