Huygh Pietersz Voskuyl: self-portrait (1638)

(Mauritshuis, The Hague, The Netherlands)

A beautiful self-portrait by the Dutch painter Huygh Pietersz Voskuyl (1591-1665). This somewhat informal portrait shows him at the age of 46, as the text in the lower right corner explains (HP voskuijl / fe. Ao. 1638 / ÆTATIS / SVÆ 46). Painting from 1638.
