This 17th century portrait by Abraham van den Tempel depicts Abraham de Visscher, a prominent Amsterdam merchant and director of the Dutch West India Company. Painted in a realistic style typical of Dutch Golden Age portraiture, de Visscher is shown in formal attire, his hand resting on a table, his face stern and serious. The painting is now held at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, a testament to the importance of de Visscher's role in Dutch society and trade.
