"Portrait of an Unknown Man Aged 28" is a miniature painting completed in 1582 by the English portrait miniaturist Isaac Oliver. As one of the early works of Oliver, who was a pupil of Nicholas Hilliard and later became one of the most celebrated miniaturists of the Elizabethan and Jacobean courts, this portrait is a significant example of the artist's meticulous technique and his ability to capture the character and status of his sitters.

The painting, executed in watercolor on vellum, a common medium for miniature portraits of the period, depicts a young man aged 28, as indicated by the inscription on the painting. The identity of the man is not known, which adds an element of mystery to the artwork. He is portrayed against a plain background, which was typical of the era, allowing the viewer to focus on the intricate details of his features and attire.

The subject is dressed in the fashion of the Elizabethan era, with a high-collared shirt, a doublet, and a cloak, all of which reflect the attire of the English gentry or nobility of the time. His attire, along with his pose and the presence of a signet ring, suggests a person of some status. The portrait is notable for its fine detail, particularly in the rendering of the textures of fabrics and the sitter's facial features, which is characteristic of Oliver's work.

"Portrait of an Unknown Man Aged 28" is an important piece within the oeuvre of Isaac Oliver, as it exemplifies the transition from the Elizabethan to the Jacobean style in portraiture. It also provides insight into the fashion and societal norms of the late 16th century. The miniature is a valuable artifact for the study of portraiture and is often examined in the context of the development of personal identity and self-fashioning during the Renaissance period in England.

The painting is held in a private collection or a museum, and it has been exhibited and studied as part of the history of miniature painting. It is frequently referenced in art historical texts discussing the evolution of portrait miniatures and the work of Isaac Oliver.
