"Portrait of a Gentleman, Bust-Length, in Profile" is a notable artwork by the German artist Hans Holbein the Younger, who is widely regarded as one of the greatest portraitists of the 16th century. This painting, executed in oil on panel, is a fine example of Holbein's skill in capturing the likeness and character of his sitters. The work is dated to the artist's time in England, likely between 1532 and 1543, when Holbein became the court painter to King Henry VIII.

The portrait features an unidentified gentleman depicted in profile, which was a common pose for portraiture during the Renaissance period, often used to emphasize the sitter's status and contemplative nature. The sitter is dressed in attire appropriate to a man of high social standing during the Tudor era, with meticulous attention to the textures and details of his clothing, suggesting Holbein's acute observation and technical prowess.

The painting's provenance and the identity of the sitter have been subjects of scholarly research, but remain uncertain. The artwork's stylistic elements and the fashion of the sitter's attire have allowed art historians to approximate the date of the painting. "Portrait of a Gentleman, Bust-Length, in Profile" is celebrated for its exquisite detail, the lifelike representation of the subject, and its contribution to the understanding of Tudor-era portraiture.

As with many of Holbein's portraits, this work is admired for its psychological depth and the artist's ability to convey the inner life of the subject through subtle expressions and nuanced use of color and light. The painting is part of Holbein's broader oeuvre, which includes other renowned portraits such as those of Thomas More, Thomas Cromwell, and the various depictions of Henry VIII, which have cemented Holbein's legacy as a master portraitist of the Northern Renaissance.

Today, "Portrait of a Gentleman, Bust-Length, in Profile" is held in a private collection or a museum, and it continues to be studied and appreciated for its artistic merit and historical significance. The work is a testament to Holbein's enduring influence on portrait painting and his exceptional ability to capture the essence of the individuals he portrayed.
