From the collection of National Gallery of Art
Paul de Vos is a 1634 ink by Anthony van Dyck, a Baroque work, depicting Moustach, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows a man, Paul de Vos, sitting in a room. He's dressed in fancy clothes and looks very serious. The artist paid close attention to the details of his face and clothes. The thing that makes this work interesting is the way the artist used light and shadow. The artist also added some subtle textures to the man's clothes, which gives the painting some depth. You can learn more about this style by looking into the technique of etching.
Sir Anthony van Dyck (; Dutch: Antoon van Dijck ; 22 March 1599 – 9 December 1641) was a Flemish Baroque artist, who became the leading court painter in England after success in the Spanish Netherlands and Italy.
