Portrait of a Man in a Red Hat is a 1465 oil by Hans Memling, a Northern Renaissance work, depicting Man, held at Städel Museum.
Portrait of a Man in a Red Hat is an oil painting dated to around 1465. It was created by the German‑Flemish artist Hans Memling, early in his career in Bruges, and it sits on an oak panel. The work is one of Memling’s first portraits and shows a sitter whose identity remains unknown. Its imagined stone frame and the way it echoes the style of Jan van Eyck and Rogier van der Weyden are notable touches. If you’re curious to see more, check out the Städel Museum.
Hans Memling was a German-Flemish painter who worked in the tradition of Early Netherlandish painting.
