Portrait of a Man

Deutsche Malerei 1400–1532, ca. 1490/1500

This painting shows a man from the waist up, standing in the corner of a room. He faces a window on the right that displays an outdoor landscape with green mountains and trees under a blue-and-white sky. The man has a pale complexion, with a large nose, prominent chin, deep-set eyes, and pink lips set in a slight frown. He has reddish-blond shoulder-length hair under a vivid red hat. He is dressed in a dark robe with green floral patterns over a red garment that is visible around his neck. The man's right hand rests on a surface next to him, and he wears two visible rings, one with a blue stone and one with a red stone. The background includes a brick-patterned wall in shades of cream and tan, a blue curtain or tapestry, and wooden ceiling beams.
