There has been speculation that the sitter of this portrait might be Rembrandt's father. A large painting of the same man, standing and also dressed in Oriental costume, is in the Metropolitan Museum in New York (signed and dated 1632), and there are other portraits of this man by painters of Rembrandt's circle. It has been argued that the present etching is the companion piece to The Artist's Mother seated, in an Oriental Headdress: half-length (B. 348; New Holl. 86) of the same year, 1631.
This is one of the first plates which Rembrandt etched in separate stages, in order to create areas of different depth and strength.
