About the piece
Painted in 1641, this full-length portrait by Cornelis Janssens van Ceulen captures Christopher Hatton, later 1st Viscount Hatton, as a young boy. The work showcases the artist's mastery of texture, particularly in the delicate lace collar and the subtle sheen of the dark velvet costume against a dramatic, draped interior.
