About the piece
Painted in 1889 by Albrecht De Vriendt, this portrait depicts the Lord of Gruuthuse in the style of the early Netherlandish masters. The figure's rich red robes and distinctive chaperon create a powerful silhouette against a luminous, textured gold background, combining historical gravitas with a bold, sophisticated aesthetic.
