About the piece
Attributed to Erasmus Quellinus II, this Flemish Baroque portrait depicts a young boy dressed in a luxurious blue patterned gown and a plumed hat. He stands proudly in a sweeping landscape, holding a falcon on a gloved hand, while a spaniel and a greyhound look on. The work beautifully captures the textures of fine fabric and animal fur, set against a dramatic, atmospheric sky.
