About the piece

Painted in 1647 by Karel van Mander III, this dramatic portrait depicts a man in exoticized costume, blending elements of military armor with a lavishly feathered turban. The work is a masterclass in Baroque texture, capturing the cold gleam of steel against the intricate folds of white fabric and the soft texture of a plume.
