This painting depicts a man with dark, shoulder-length hair, wearing a black hat and a black coat over a white shirt. A gold chain with a pendant hangs around his neck. His hands are clasped in front of him, and he wears a ring on his left hand. The man's attire and the style of the painting suggest a formal portrait. The artist has paid close attention to detail, capturing the texture of the man's clothing and the sparkle of the gold chain. The painting is a fine example of Renaissance portraiture. To learn more about the artist's use of chiaroscuro, look up Hans Memling.
