Portrait of Tieleman Roosterman by Frans Hals

Portrait of Tieleman Roosterman (1634)

Frans Hals | Dutch Golden Age | Oil on canvas

This wealthy Haarlem merchant looks like he just turned around to face you. Frans Hals was famous for bold, visible brushstrokes that make his sitters seem alive, as if a camera had caught the moment 200 years before cameras existed!

Did you know? Tieleman Roosterman sold linen and silk, and he was 36 when Hals painted him. He may have ordered this portrait, and one of his wife, to celebrate their wedding three years earlier.
