Portrait of Frans van Schoterbosch (c. 1484-?) is a 1620 unspecified by Unknown, a Dutch Golden Age work, held at Rijksmuseum.
A man stands behind a stone railing, holding a ring in his right hand. His dark clothes blend into the background, but his face and hands glow softly. Above his right shoulder, a small coat of arms is painted like a stamp. This portrait was made about a century after the man died. It’s part of a set of family pictures—like old photo albums, but painted. The ring might be a wedding band or a sign of office, but no one knows for sure.
