Detailed Description
Tronie is a 17th-century Dutch genre of portraiture in which the subject’s face is painted in a realistic manner, but the body and clothing are rendered in an idealized, often allegorical style. The term tronie (Dutch for “face”) refers to both the specific type of painting and the subjects of the paintings. Tronies were usually single, small-scale portraits, either in oil or in etching, that focused on the subject’s face. The paintings were often expressive and exaggerated, and the subjects were often shown in unusual or distorted poses. Famous artists who painted tronies include Rembrandt, Jan Lievens, and Nicolaes Maes. Some of the most famous tronies are Rembrandt’s “Self-Portrait as a Young Man” (1629), Lievens’s “Portrait of a Man” (1631), and Maes’s “Portrait of a Man” (1656).
