A 19th century oil on canvas portrait of Prince Rupert of the Rhine

A 19th century oil on canvas portrait of Prince Rupert of the Rhine (also known as Prince Rupert von der Pfalz), attributed to the studio of the Flemish Baroque master Anthony van Dyck.

He is shown in a reflective, lyrical pose wearing a dark doublet paired with a crisp, wide white collar and cuff. The original, full-length composition painted by Van Dyck resides in the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, while this specific painting is a later period bust-length adaptation.

The Van Dyck Hand: A distinctive characteristic mirrored from the Baroque master is the focus on elongated, elegant, and highly expressive hands.
