Portrait of a Man

1620/1621 | Anthonis van Dyck

This work was long believed to be a portrait of the painter Paul de Vos. However, on the verso of a drawing after the painting, now in the City Museum of Münster, the sitter is identified as the painter Jan Boeckhorst. The portrait was cut down in the 18th century and originally showed the man holding a sword, an accessory commonlyused to symbolize aristocratic status. As neither of the two painters ever held a title, both identifications are likely to be inaccurate.
