Retrato Masculino (António Gomes da Mata?) is a 1619 unspecified by Luis Tristán, a Early Baroque Italian work, held at National Museum of Ancient Art.
The painting shows a man with a white beard and hair, wearing a black robe. He has a white ruff around his neck. The man's face is serious, with a hint of sadness in his eyes. His white beard is neatly trimmed, and his hair is short and gray. The background of the painting is a dark brown color, which helps to highlight the man's features. This painting is reminiscent of the works of Luis Tristán, an artist known for his use of chiaroscuro and impasto techniques.
Luis Tristán de Escamilla, also known as Luis de Escamilla or Luis Rodríguez Tristán (c.1585, Toledo - 1624, Toledo), was a Spanish painter in the mannerist style.
