The Artist as Lover

Niederländische Malerei 1660–1672, circa anni Sessanta del Seicento

This painting is a portrait of a person depicted from the waist up, turned slightly to the right with one hand raised to their chest. The person has pale skin, rosy cheeks, a thin mustache, and long, curly brown hair. They are wearing a loose, long-sleeved blue garment on top of a billowing white shirt. The background features a dark interior space with an arched window on the right, through which a landscape with trees and a distant spire is visible under a blue sky.
