Portrait of a Man at a Table is a 1620 oil by Anthony van Dyck, a Flemish Baroque painting work, depicting Man, held at Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden.
The painting depicts a man sitting at a table, wearing a dark-colored jacket and a large, white ruffled collar. His right hand rests on the table, while his left hand is not visible. The background of the painting is dark, which helps to focus attention on the subject. The man's attire and the style of the painting suggest that it was created during the early 17th century. The use of dark colors and the dramatic lighting also give the painting a sense of depth and realism.
