Jonas Suyderhoff, after Frans Hals

National Gallery of Art

The image displays an upper-body portrait of a man. He is seated and facing slightly to his left, with wavy, shoulder-length dark hair. The man has distinct facial features including arched eyebrows, a moustache, and a goatee. He is wearing a dark, intricately detailed robe with buttons down the front, over a white collared shirt with a large collar. In his right hand, he is holding a closed book. The background consists of a simple, parallel-line texture, highlighting the subject in the foreground.
