"Portrait of a Gentleman" is a 17th-century oil painting by the English artist John Hayls (1600–1679). Hayls, a contemporary of the more renowned Anthony van Dyck, was an accomplished portraitist in his own right, known for his ability to capture the character and social status of his sitters. This particular work is a fine example of Hayls' skill in rendering the details of the gentleman's attire and the subtleties of his expression, which was typical of the portraiture of the English Baroque period.

The painting depicts an unidentified gentleman, which is common in works from this era where the identity of the sitter has been lost over time. The subject is dressed in the fashion of the mid-17th century, suggesting a person of some standing in society. He is typically shown with an air of confidence and poise, reflecting the conventions of portraiture intended to convey the status and personality of the sitter.

"Portrait of a Gentleman" is notable for its representation of the textiles and materials of the period, as well as for its insight into the social and cultural context of the English upper classes during the Restoration period. The use of light and shadow, the careful depiction of the gentleman's features, and the attention to the textures of his clothing all serve to create a lifelike and compelling portrait.

The painting is part of the collection of the National Portrait Gallery in London, which houses one of the world's most extensive collections of English portraiture. "Portrait of a Gentleman" is an important work within Hayls' oeuvre and contributes to the understanding of portraiture in 17th-century England. It continues to be studied for its artistic merit and as a historical document of its time.
