Frans Pourbus the Younger's "Portrait of Archduke Albert of Austria" (c. 1600) is an oil-on-canvas portrait of the Archduke, depicted in a richly detailed armor with intricate gold embellishments. The portrait is known for its realistic portrayal of the Archduke's features, particularly his piercing gaze, and the meticulous depiction of the details of his clothing, highlighting the grandeur and power of the Habsburg dynasty. This work is a prime example of the Flemish portraiture of the late Renaissance, showcasing the artist's mastery of rendering both the subject and the intricate details of the period. It is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
