Portrait of a Premonstratensian

Portrait of a Premonstratensian is a 1656 painting by David Teniers the Younger. It is housed in the Musée Rolin and measures 0.122 meters in width and 0.172 meters in height. The painting depicts a half-length portrait of a man, presumably a Premonstratensian monk, wearing a white surplice with a high, pleated collar. His expression is serious and his gaze is directed slightly to the viewer's left. The background is dark and indistinct, focusing attention on the subject.
