Portrait of Sir John Hebdon is a 1659 oil by Ferdinand Bol, a Dutch Golden Age work, held at Museum of Fine Arts, Houston.
This painting features a man with curly brown hair, wearing a black coat with a white collar and a silver tassel. He sits in a red chair with gold trim, his right hand resting on the armrest and his left hand holding a ring. The background is dark, with a gold and red fabric draped to the right. The man's attire and the chair suggest a formal setting, possibly a portrait session. The artist's use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and dimensionality.
