Moses ter Borch Holding a Kolf Stick

Niederländische Malerei 1645–1660, circa 1655

This painting depicts a person from head to toe, standing upright and looking off to the right. The person has a round face with fair skin and slightly flushed cheeks. Their long hair is curly and blond, peeking out from underneath a fluffy, off-white fur hat. They are dressed in a voluminous cream coat with a thick, fur-like texture, tied with a green ribbon at their neck. Their coat and hat have hints of brown and rosy pink among the light tufts. Underneath the fur coat appears to be a green cloak and a thick brown jacket, and they wear a long, decorated brown skirt with dark brown patterns down the front and around the hem. Below the skirt, pointed black shoes with red laces are visible. In their left arm, the figure holds a long stick with a hooked end next to a small ball near their feet. Their other hand rests on their hip. The floor is light gray, and the space behind them is dark gray.
