"A Doctor of Law" is a notable painting by the Spanish Baroque artist Francisco de Zurbarán, created around 1635. This work is part of Zurbarán's series of paintings that depict figures from the world of learning and the church, showcasing his mastery in portraying religious and scholarly individuals with a remarkable sense of realism and austerity.

The painting features a seated, life-sized figure of a learned man, presumed to be a doctor of law, given the title of the work. He is dressed in the traditional scholarly garb of the period, which includes a black robe and a white, ruff collar. The figure's dignified pose and the direct gaze towards the viewer suggest the authority and respect commanded by a person of his intellectual stature. The use of chiaroscuro, a technique characterized by the strong contrasts between light and dark, enhances the three-dimensional quality of the figure and adds to the solemn atmosphere of the painting.

"A Doctor of Law" is exemplary of Zurbarán's skill in rendering textures and materials, from the softness of the white collar to the heavy folds of the black robe. The restrained color palette and the attention to detail in the depiction of the subject's face and hands reflect the influence of Caravaggio and the naturalism that was prevalent in European art during the 17th century.

Although the identity of the specific individual portrayed in the painting is not known, the work is celebrated for its representation of the intellectual elite of Zurbarán's time and for its contribution to the genre of portraiture in Spanish Golden Age art. "A Doctor of Law" is held in high regard for its artistic merit and as a testament to Francisco de Zurbarán's ability to convey the character and profession of his subjects with solemnity and grace.

The painting is part of the collection of the Kimbell Art Museum in Fort Worth, Texas, where it continues to be studied and admired for its historical significance and Zurbarán's distinctive style.
