This anonymous portrait of an unknown man, dating back to before 1887, is encased in an ornately carved oak frame. The frame features elaborate scrollwork and floral motifs, characteristic of the 17th century. The small size of the piece, measuring 234 mm in height and 174 mm in width, suggests it was likely intended for private use. While the identity of the sitter remains a mystery, the painting offers a glimpse into the artistry and fashion of the period.
