"Portrait of an Old Gentleman" is a 17th-century oil painting by Italian Baroque artist Carlo Ceresa. Born in 1609 in Bergamo, Ceresa was known for his religious works and portraits that reflected the influence of the Venetian school and his master, Giovanni Battista Moroni. This particular painting is notable for its realistic depiction of an elderly man, whose identity remains unknown, but whose dignified presence and the fine rendering of his facial features and attire suggest he was a person of some standing.

The artwork is a testament to Ceresa's skill in capturing the character and essence of his sitters. The old gentleman is portrayed with a direct gaze that engages the viewer, conveying a sense of his personality and life experience. The use of light and shadow in the painting highlights the textures of the man's skin and the fabric of his clothing, adding depth and dimension to the composition.

"Portrait of an Old Gentleman" is a significant work within Ceresa's oeuvre as it exemplifies the artist's adeptness at portraiture, a genre that was increasingly in demand during the Baroque period. The painting is housed in a notable art collection, though its provenance and the history of its ownership prior to its current location may provide further insight into the work's significance and the esteem in which Ceresa's artistry was held.

As a representation of Baroque portraiture, the painting offers scholars and art enthusiasts a glimpse into the era's aesthetic preferences and the social context in which such works were commissioned and appreciated. It remains an important piece for the study of Italian Baroque art and the development of portraiture in the period.
