Brief Description

A black and white portrait painting of a man with a mustache, goatee, and large ruffled ruff

Detailed Description

A black and white, head-and-shoulders portrait painting depicts a man facing forward with a slight smile. He has dark hair, a mustache, and a pointed goatee. A large, white, intricately ruffled ruff encircles his neck, contrasting with his dark, possibly black, garment. His right hand, visible at the bottom right, rests on his hip, revealing a white cuff and a ring on his ring finger. The background is a plain, dark, textured surface. In the upper left corner, the text "ANNO AETATIS XXVIJ" is visible. In the upper right corner, the text "ANNO M DIIJ DIE VII MENS IVNII" is visible. The painting has visible signs of age and wear, with some lighter specks and variations in tone across the surface.
