About the piece
Painted in 1631 by Jan Cossiers, this masterful portrait captures a man of presence, distinguished by his expansive wide-brimmed hat and intricate lace collar. The play of light across the subject's face and the rich textures of his black doublet contrast beautifully with the moody, atmospheric landscape visible in the background.
