Young Man in Medieval Costume is a 1890 oil by Ferdinand Roybet, held at Museum of Fine Arts Boston.
This painting is a portrait of a young man dressed in medieval attire. He wears a dark, high-collared tunic and a hat, and a decorative chain or necklace hangs around his neck. The background is a dark, muted color. The subject's face is the central focus of the painting, and his expression is serious and introspective. The artist has used chiaroscuro to create a sense of depth and dimensionality in the portrait.
