Adriaen van Ostade

Jacobus Houbraken

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts a bust-length portrait of a man with his arms crossed, looking slightly to his right. He wears a broad-brimmed hat, and his hair reaches his collar. He has prominent cheekbones and slightly narrowed eyes, and wears a collared garment with large cuffs. In front of him is a nude child figure interacting with a large sheet of paper or artwork. The surroundings include a shelf with a bottle and a framed image, all set against a textured backdrop.
