Portrait of Jacob Trip is a 1660 oil by Nicolaes Maes, a Dutch Golden Age work, held at Museum of Fine Arts, Budapest.
This painting depicts an older man with a long white beard, wearing a dark robe over a white collar. He sits in a red chair, with his hands resting on the armrests. The man's attire and the chair suggest a formal setting, possibly a portrait session. The artist's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and volume in the painting.
