The artwork measures 34.5x27.5 cm and is currently housed in the Groeningemuseum in Bruges, Belgium. The subject of this exquisite piece is Paulus de Nigro, a prominent Genoese businessman who worked as an insurance agent specializing in boat and cargo coverage in Antwerp and Bruges during the early 16th century.
