"The Second Oriental Head" is a notable painting by the renowned Dutch artist Rembrandt van Rijn, created during the Dutch Golden Age. Rembrandt, who lived from 1606 to 1669, is widely celebrated for his masterful use of light and shadow, as well as his profound ability to capture human emotion and character in his portraits. This particular work is part of a series of paintings often referred to as "tronies," which are studies of facial expressions and character types rather than commissioned portraits.

"The Second Oriental Head" depicts a man with a turban, a subject that reflects the fascination with exoticism and the Orient that was prevalent in 17th-century Europe. The figure is rendered with Rembrandt's characteristic attention to detail, particularly in the textures of the turban and the man's facial features. The use of chiaroscuro, a technique that employs stark contrasts between light and dark, is evident in this painting, highlighting the contours of the man's face and giving the portrait a three-dimensional quality.

This painting is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for what it reveals about the cultural exchanges and perceptions of the time. The interest in "Oriental" subjects was partly fueled by the Dutch Republic's extensive trade networks, which brought goods, people, and ideas from the East to Europe. Rembrandt's portrayal of this figure, with its dignified and introspective expression, challenges the often stereotypical depictions of non-European subjects in Western art.

"The Second Oriental Head" is housed in the Gemäldegalerie in Berlin, where it continues to be a subject of study and admiration. The painting exemplifies Rembrandt's skill in capturing the essence of his subjects, making it a valuable piece in understanding both his oeuvre and the broader context of 17th-century art.
