About the piece

Painted around 1630 by Jan van Ravesteyn, this oil on panel portrait captures a gentleman in the formal attire of the Dutch Golden Age. The subject's dignified expression is framed by an intricately detailed white lace millstone ruff, providing a luminous focal point against the deep, atmospheric background.
