PORTRAIT OF A MANJAN DE BRAY 66 JAX DK BRAY Dutch, 1627-1697PORTRAIT OF A MAN Jan de Bray was a painter of considerable importance inHolland in the seventeenth century, and there are authoritieswho place him second to Frans Hals among Haarlem painters.This Portrait of a Man is a t)pical example of his work and showsto a high degree the two outstanding characteristics of Dutchart, namely representation and penetration into character—aninnate character expressed more by subtleties of surface thanabstractly. The head is well modelled in rich colour and thetone is modified by the grey of the background and the delicatelypainted lace collar. Although Jan de Bray was influenced byFrans Hals there are man) suggestions of Rembrandt in thisportrait. He painted historical pictures but his portraits werehis best achievements. Oil on canvas, 25^ inches by 21 inches 67
