Vermeule suggests that this portrait represents an individual also known from other examples, one in the Worcester Art Museum, one at Schloss Adolphseck in Germany, and one in Florence (see p. 229 in Comstock and Vermeule, op. cit.). Based on the attributes of the other portraits, Vermeule postulates that this was a man of military rank.
