Man with a Blue Chaperon ☶ Van Eyck ☴ Art Print Paper Finish:Resin Semigloss Arrangement in Grey and BlackPortrait of a Man with a Blue Chaperon (1430) by Jan van Eyck depicts a man in a blue headdress presenting a ring. Artists did not title their works in the Northern Renaissance period, so his name and true profession have been lost. As such the painting has attracted several titles: Portrait of a Man with a Blue Hood, Portrait of a Jeweler, and Man with a Ring. The painting is not signed or dated by van Eyck. Albrecht Drer's signature "AD 1492"
