      Michiel Jansz. van Mierevelt (1567-1641) was a leading Dutch Golden Age portrait painter known for his sincere, detailed depictions of nobility & royalty. Explore his harmonious color palettes and prolific workshop – over 500 attributed works!

      For the sitter’s biography see the entry on (SK-A-1723). The present painting is an extremely poor copy of Van Mierevelt’s lost portrait of Gustav II Adolf, or of Willem Jacobsz Delff’s 1633 engraving after Van Mierevelt’s portrait.2 The decoration of the sash and the pattern of the lace collar in the present painting differ from the print.
