An antique oil on timber panel depicting a gentleman in traditional 17th-century attire with a finely painted white ruff collar. Painted in the Dutch manner, the work reflects the enduring influence of Northern European portraiture, with a rich, moody palette and expressive brushwork. Imported from Denmark, the painting is presented in an old stained timber frame with a deep moulded profile that complements the artwork beautifully. Wear, surface marks and losses to the frame are consistent with age and use.
