"A Portrait Of A Young Officer In A Velvet Cloak And Metal Breast-plate" is a 17th-century painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist Jacob Adriaensz Backer. Known for his portraits and history paintings, Backer was a prolific artist who worked in Amsterdam and was a contemporary of Rembrandt. This particular work is notable for its depiction of a young military officer, characterized by the detailed rendering of his attire, which includes a luxurious velvet cloak and a gleaming metal breastplate, signifying his status and profession.

The painting is executed with the fine brushwork and attention to texture that typify Backer's portraiture. The officer's gaze and the subtle play of light on the metal and fabric demonstrate Backer's skill in capturing both the physical likeness and the psychological presence of his subjects. The artwork reflects the cultural and social milieu of the Dutch Republic during a period when military officers held high social status and when portraiture was a popular means of asserting one's identity and position in society.

While the exact date of creation is not specified, the work is consistent with Backer's artistic output during the mid-17th century. The portrait is a testament to the artist's mastery of form and his ability to convey the dignity and elegance of the sitters in his portraits. As with many of Backer's works, this painting contributes to our understanding of the visual culture and societal values of the Dutch Golden Age.

The painting is part of a larger body of work that has been studied for its artistic merit and historical significance. It is held in a collection or museum, where it is accessible to the public and scholars for viewing and research. The portrait continues to be a subject of art historical interest, providing insight into the techniques and thematic concerns of one of the period's accomplished portraitists.
