Widower, dressed in the French fashion of ca. 1630

French gentleman in short cape which he holds under the arm on one side, over an embroidered doublet. Wide collar trimmed with lace, knee-breeches and boots with wide turn-downs. Hat with plumes on the hair that hangs on one side in a long lock (cadenette) downwards. In his right hand he holds an open medallion, containing a woman's portrait and a heart pierced with an arrow: a reference to his state of love. The gravestone next to him, refers to his state as widower. (See Join-Lambert and Préaud, p. 96) In the background a castle with moat.
