About this work

The painting depicts a young man with long, curly hair, wearing a black coat with white cuffs and a white shirt. He is standing in front of a stone railing, with a landscape visible in the background. The man's right hand rests on the railing, while his left hand is tucked into his coat. The young man's attire and hairstyle suggest a sense of elegance and refinement. The painting's use of chiaroscuro, a technique that uses strong contrasts between light and dark, adds depth and dimension to the scene. The painting is held at the Mauritshuis.
