Portret van Gerard ter Borch de Oude, in achthoekige omlijsting 1655

This 1655 watercolor by Dutch artist Harmen ter Borch depicts a portrait of his father, Gerard ter Borch the Elder, in a simple yet elegant pose. The elder ter Borch is shown standing in profile, wearing a dark coat and hat, and his hand resting on his hip. This intimate portrayal captures the essence of a notable figure in a style reminiscent of the Dutch Golden Age. It is currently held at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
