"Bildnis eines Herrn Mit Mühlsteinkragen" (Portrait of a Gentleman with a Millstone Collar) is a notable work by the Flemish painter Frans Pourbus the Younger, who was active during the late 16th and early 17th centuries. Pourbus, born in 1569 in Antwerp, was a prominent portraitist of his time, known for his meticulous attention to detail and his ability to capture the intricate textures of fabrics and the subtle nuances of his sitters' expressions. He was the son of Frans Pourbus the Elder, also a distinguished painter, and he continued the family tradition, achieving significant acclaim in European courts.

The painting exemplifies Pourbus's skill in rendering the elaborate attire and dignified presence of his subjects, which was highly sought after by the nobility and royalty of his era. The "millstone collar," a large, stiff ruff that encircles the neck, was a fashionable element of clothing during the late Renaissance and early Baroque periods. This particular accessory, often made of fine linen and intricately starched, symbolizes the wealth and status of the sitter, reflecting the social and cultural milieu of the time.

Pourbus's portraits are characterized by their lifelike quality and the artist's ability to convey the personality and status of his subjects through their attire and demeanor. "Bildnis eines Herrn Mit Mühlsteinkragen" is no exception, showcasing the artist's adeptness at capturing the interplay of light and shadow on the richly textured fabrics and the sitter's composed, authoritative expression.

Throughout his career, Pourbus worked for various European courts, including those of the Dukes of Mantua, the Archdukes of Austria, and the French court under Marie de' Medici. His works remain significant for their historical and artistic value, providing insight into the fashion, culture, and personalities of the European elite during the late Renaissance and early Baroque periods.
