Portrait of a Seated Man

Cornelis Ploos van Amstel (editor) and Johannes Kornlein (printmaker), after Cornelis Visscher

National Gallery of Art

The image depicts a man seated from the waist up, facing slightly to his left. He has high cheekbones, almond-shaped eyes, a moustache, and a goatee. His hair is styled with soft curls falling around his ears. He is wearing a formal outfit with a voluminous garment, large cuffs, and a wide white collar. His right hand rests at his waist, and the garment has buttons down the front. The background shows a heavy drapery on the right side, with the brim of a hat nearby.
