"Portrait of a Gentleman" is a Renaissance painting by the Italian artist Ridolfo Ghirlandaio, created in the early 16th century. Ridolfo, the son of the prominent Florentine painter Domenico Ghirlandaio, was an influential artist in his own right, known for his portraits and religious works that reflect the transition from the High Renaissance to Mannerism.

The painting depicts an unidentified man, presumed to be a member of the Florentine elite, given the artist's connections with the city's leading families. The subject is portrayed with a direct gaze, engaging the viewer with a sense of immediacy and presence. He is dressed in the fashion of the time, with fine clothing that suggests his status and wealth. The portrait is noted for its detailed rendering of textures, from the luxurious fabrics of the man's attire to the lifelike depiction of his skin and hair.

"Portrait of a Gentleman" is exemplary of Ridolfo Ghirlandaio's portraiture style, which often combined the detailed naturalism inherited from his father with a growing interest in the psychological depth of the sitter. The painting's composition, use of color, and the subtle play of light and shadow reveal Ridolfo's mastery of the techniques of the day and his ability to capture the character and social standing of his subjects.

The artwork is significant for its contribution to the understanding of portraiture during the Renaissance, as well as for offering insights into the cultural and social milieu of Florence during a period of great artistic achievement. "Portrait of a Gentleman" remains an important work within Ghirlandaio's oeuvre and continues to be studied for its artistic and historical value.

While the painting is held in high regard, its provenance and the identity of the sitter have been subjects of scholarly debate. The artwork is part of a larger body of Renaissance portraiture that provides a window into the self-representation and identity of the upper classes during this transformative period in European history.
