Escuela Flamenca, Retrato de Hombre. Hacia 1630. Óleo sobre cobre.

Presentamos aquí una obra de gran interés. El personaje corresponde por su vestimenta a la moda de 1630, desarrollada en España y en los Países Bajos en esta época. Dado su aspecto físico se trata probablemente de un español al servicio del rey en Flandes.

La finura con la que el pintor elabora el rostro, la expresión y el cuidado al ejecutar los cabellos ya que se esfuerza en utilizar el pincel con gran minuciosidad nos permiten atribuir este retrato a un pintor de calidad que conocía bien la importancia de este género y su desarrollo en su época.

Conviene destacar igualmente la intensidad que consigue transmitir en la mirada del personaje representado, el artista utiliza una paleta de colores reducida: ocres, negros, blancos, sin embargo la personalidad del retratado esta bien conseguida, los diferentes matices del rostro, el brillo de los ojos donde se aprecia incluso una pequeña mancha, las sombras del cuello, los contrastes sobre el fondo del cuadro nos confirman la calidad de esta obra.

Se trata sin ninguna duda de una pieza de coleccionista no solo por su calidad sino también por el carácter histórico del personaje representado.

Este cuadro proviene de una colección privada francesa, conserva un marco antiguo francés del siglo XIX así como unas anotaciones antiguas en francés al dorso de cuadro.

Flemish School, Portrait of Man. 1630. Oil on copper. We present here a work of great interest. The corresponding figure for their fashionable dress of 1630, developed in Spain and the Netherlands at this time. Given their physical appearance is probably a Spanish king's service in Flanders. The delicacy with which the artist develops his face, his expression and hair care to run as it strives to use the brush with great thoroughness allows us attribute this picture to a quality painter who knew the importance of this genre and its development in his time. It should be noted also that manages to convey the intensity in the eyes of the character portrayed, the artist uses a limited color palette: ochres, blacks white, but the personality of the sitter is nice to get the different shades the face, eyes shine where we can see even a small spot, the shadows of the neck, the contrasts on the background of the picture as we confirm this work. This is undoubtedly a collector's item not only for its quality but also by the historic nature of the character represented. This picture comes from a French private collection, old frame retains a nineteenth century French and some old records in French table overleaf.
