About this work
A young man in a plumed black cap, gold chain of office and striped doublet is shown half-length, holding a white lily blossom between two fingers, set within a framed panel like an old portrait. Below, on a patterned cloth, stand a blue-and-white ceramic ewer, a single pomegranate, a small carved box and an illustrated card of white lilies.
Deep olive greens and muted golds set off the sitter's pale, finely modeled face, painted in a smoother, more traditional manner than the richly textured, crackled surface around him. Warm, gallery-like lighting and old-master framing give the portrait a hushed, contemplative formality.
