This etching by Samuel van Hoogstraten, created between 1630 and 1678, depicts a young man wearing a feathered hat. The artwork, housed in the Rijksmuseum, captures the sitter's presence through a focused portrait. The use of hatching and cross-hatching, typical of etching, provides depth and texture, highlighting the detailed rendering of the young man's features and attire. This small-scale work showcases van Hoogstraten's skill as an engraver and offers a glimpse into the artistic practices of 17th-century Dutch portraiture.
