About the piece

Painted in 1682 by Michiel van Musscher, this portrait depicts Hendrick Bicker, a prominent burgomaster of Amsterdam. The work exemplifies the Dutch Golden Age style, focusing on the meticulous rendering of luxurious materials such as the shimmering gold silk vest and the delicate, complex lace of the cravat, set against a somber, atmospheric landscape.
