Summary

Portrait of Philip the Good (1396-1467), third Duke of Burgundy from the House of Valois. Half length, facing right. He is dressed in black, wearing a jewelled collar of firesteels in the shape of the letter B, for Burgundy, and flints, holding the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_the_Golden_Fleece" class="extiw" title="w:Order of the Golden Fleece">Order of the Golden Fleece</a>, which he instituted. The work is after Rogier van der Weyden i.e. a copy of a lost painting, although in this case it may also have exited as a drawing or sketch. There are several such copies (Lille, Antwerp and Paris), of which the Dijon version is thought to be the best.
