A Benedictine Monk ca. 1478 Hugo van der Goes Netherlandish This mans robe and tonsured hair indicate that he is a Benedictine, but whether this is a portrait of a contemporary monk or an image of a saint is not clear. The panel was cut from a larger image, and unlike some of the donor portraits on display, this sitter gazes downward, creating a more contemplative mood. His attenuated head, the sensitive modeling of his features, and the meditative expression are characteristic of Hugo van der Goess late work.. A Benedictine Monk. Hugo van der Goes (Netherlandish, Ghent, active by 1467-died 1482 Roode-Klooster). ca. 1478. Oil on wood. Paintings
