Portrait of an older man is a 1650 oil by Rembrandt, a Dutch Golden Age work, depicting Man, held at Mauritshuis.
This painting shows an older man with a gentle expression. He has curly grey hair and a short beard. He's wearing a dark jacket over a lighter shirt with a high collar. The man's face is the main focus, with soft light on his forehead and cheeks. His eyes are cast downward, giving a sense of quiet thoughtfulness. The background is dark and muted, which helps the man stand out. If you like this kind of portrait, you might want to check out other works by the artist, Rembrandt.
