This portrait, painted by Hans Holbein the Younger in 1534, depicts an unknown gentleman, likely a wealthy patron of the arts. The subject is rendered with meticulous detail, showcasing Holbein's mastery of Northern Renaissance portraiture. The gentleman is seated, holding a lute and music books, indicating his interest in music. His attire and the rich drapery behind him suggest a life of comfort and refinement. The painting's realism and its focus on individual character are hallmarks of Holbein's work.
