Jan van Eyck's "Portrait of Jan de Leeuw" (1436) depicts a man in a black cap and fur-trimmed cloak, holding a ring in his right hand. The oil on panel painting is renowned for its realistic portrayal of the sitter, with meticulous detail rendered to the skin, hair, and clothing. The work is a prime example of the Northern Renaissance, emphasizing naturalism and individual portraiture. The painting is currently housed in the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna.
