"Old Man in Oriental Garb" is a 17th-century oil painting by the Dutch artist Jan Lievens, who was a contemporary and, at times, a collaborator of Rembrandt van Rijn. The painting is notable for its detailed depiction of an elderly figure dressed in elaborate Eastern attire, reflecting the European fascination with the Orient during the period. Lievens, known for his portraits and historical scenes, utilizes a rich palette and masterful technique to convey the textures of the fabrics and the character of the sitter's visage.

The work is an example of "tronie," a type of Dutch Golden Age painting that focuses on an exaggerated or characterful face, often with the subject in exotic or imaginary costume. "Old Man in Oriental Garb" exemplifies this genre, with the subject's attire and the painting's mood suggesting a narrative beyond the sitter's personal identity. The painting's composition, use of light and shadow, and the psychological depth it suggests in the subject's expression are characteristic of Lievens' mature work and demonstrate the influence of his interactions with Rembrandt.

The painting's provenance and the identity of the sitter have been subjects of art historical inquiry, with some speculation that the work may have been intended as a study or a stock character for larger historical or biblical compositions. Today, "Old Man in Oriental Garb" is considered an important work within Lievens' oeuvre, offering insight into the cultural and artistic milieu of the Dutch Republic in the 17th century. It is held in a public collection, allowing for continued appreciation and study by scholars and the general public.
