The "Portrait of Antony of Burgundy" is a distinguished work attributed to the Early Netherlandish painter Rogier van der Weyden, created around 1461. This portrait is a significant example of van der Weyden's mastery in capturing the intricate details and psychological depth of his subjects, a hallmark of his portraiture. Antony of Burgundy, also known as Anthony the Bastard of Burgundy, was an illegitimate son of Philip the Good, Duke of Burgundy, and one of the prominent figures of the Burgundian court. His portrayal in this painting reflects his status and the sophisticated culture of the Burgundian court during the mid-15th century.

The painting is executed in oil on panel, a medium that van der Weyden excelled in, allowing for meticulous detail and rich, luminous colors. Antony is depicted in three-quarter view, a common pose in van der Weyden's portraits, which provides a sense of immediacy and presence. He is dressed in the luxurious attire befitting his noble status, with a fur-lined cloak and a richly embroidered garment, indicative of the wealth and opulence of the Burgundian court. The background is typically plain, focusing the viewer's attention entirely on the sitter.

Van der Weyden's skillful use of light and shadow, as well as his attention to the textures of skin, fabric, and fur, contribute to the lifelike quality of the portrait. The artist's ability to convey the character and inner life of Antony is evident in the subtle expression and the intense gaze that engages the viewer directly. This portrait not only serves as a testament to Antony of Burgundy's prominence but also exemplifies the high level of portraiture achieved during the Northern Renaissance.

The "Portrait of Antony of Burgundy" is housed in the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, where it continues to be a subject of admiration and study. It remains an important work for understanding the cultural and artistic milieu of the Burgundian Netherlands and the broader context of 15th-century European art.
