GOSSART, Jan
(b. ca. 1478, Maubeuge, d. 1532, Middelburg)

Portrait of a Man

c. 1520
Oil on panel, 36 x 28 cm
Pushkin Museum, Moscow

This portrait bears a striking resemblance to certain of the putative images of Gossart (e.g. in Jan Wierix's engraving), therefore it is perhaps a self-portrait, that could explain the unusually casual and loose manner in which it was painted.
