About the piece

Painted by Frans Hals in 1656, this portrait exemplifies the artist's signature loose, expressive brushwork and keen psychological insight. The subject, Tyman Oosdorp, is depicted in a sober palette of blacks and whites, typical of mid-17th century Dutch fashion, set against a deep, tonally rich background that highlights the lifelike texture of his features.
