Portrait of Paul Josef de Cock is a 1790 oil by Joseph-Benoît Suvée, a Rococo painting work, held at Groeningemuseum.
This painting is a portrait of a man with white hair, wearing a dark jacket over a white shirt. The background is dark, and the frame is gold with an ornate design at the top. The man's face is serious, and his eyes seem to be looking directly at the viewer. The painting is done in oil paint, which gives it a rich, textured look.
