"Portrait of a Goldsmith (Man with Ring)" is a painting attributed to Early Netherlandish painter Jan van Eyck, one of the most significant Northern Renaissance artists. The work is believed to have been created in the 1430s, a period during which van Eyck was pioneering new approaches to oil painting, including meticulous attention to detail and a heightened sense of realism. The painting is a bust-length portrait of an unidentified man, traditionally thought to be a goldsmith due to the presence of a ring he holds between his fingers, which suggests his trade.

The portrait is characterized by van Eyck's masterful handling of light and texture, which brings out the nuanced reflections on the metallic surfaces and the intricate details of the man's facial features. The subject's gaze is directed toward the viewer, creating an engaging and lifelike presence. The painting's background is typically dark, a common feature in van Eyck's portraits, which serves to focus the viewer's attention on the subject and the fine details of his attire and the ring.

While the painting's provenance and the identity of the sitter have been subjects of scholarly debate, the work is often cited as an example of van Eyck's skill in portraying not only the physical likeness of his subjects but also suggesting their social status and profession through the use of symbolic objects. The "Portrait of a Goldsmith (Man with Ring)" remains an important piece in the oeuvre of Jan van Eyck and is celebrated for its contribution to the development of portraiture in Western art.

The painting is held in a private collection, and its limited public display has made it less well-known than some of van Eyck's other works, such as the "Arnolfini Portrait." Nonetheless, it continues to be studied for its artistic significance and as a representation of the cultural and economic milieu of 15th-century Flanders.
