Philip al II-lea al Spaniei is an unspecified by Anthonis Moor, held at Brukenthal National Museum.
This painting is a portrait of a man, likely a historical figure, dressed in 16th-century attire. He wears a black hat adorned with a white feather and a yellow ruffled collar, which suggests a high social status. The subject's gaze is directed to the right, and his facial expression is neutral. The painting's style and the subject's clothing suggest it was created during the Renaissance period. The artist's use of chiaroscuro, a technique that uses strong contrasts between light and dark, adds depth and volume to the portrait.

This 16th-century portraitist painted stern-faced nobles and officials with careful beards and stiff ruffs, leaving us two surviving works.
