About this work

This portrait depicts a man in a furlined coat, his face turned slightly to the left. He wears a black hat and a gold shirt with a high collar, adorned with buttons down the front. His right hand rests on the hilt of a sword, while his left hand is obscured from view. The man's attire suggests a sense of luxury and refinement, with the furlined coat being a symbol of wealth and status. The use of gold in his shirt adds to the overall sense of opulence, creating a striking visual contrast with the darker tones of the coat and hat. This painting is reminiscent of the works of artists who specialized in portraiture, such as those found in the collections of the Nationalmuseum.
