About this work

This portrait depicts a man in armor, with a white lace collar and a red sash across his chest. He holds a sword in his right hand and rests his left hand on a piece of armor. The background is dark, with a glimpse of a landscape visible on the right side. The man's face is serious, and his eyes seem to be looking directly at the viewer.
