This drawing by Samuel van Hoogstraten, a Dutch Golden Age painter, depicts a young man, presumably a nobleman, leaving his family home. The scene is set in front of a grand house, with a horse being held by servants in the background, suggesting a journey or departure. The young man is accompanied by his father and other family members, while several figures stand inside the entrance, possibly bidding farewell. The composition is characterized by the use of chiaroscuro, with strong contrasts of light and shadow, creating a sense of depth and atmosphere. This drawing offers a glimpse into the daily life and customs of the Dutch aristocracy in the 17th century.
