''Portrait of a Commander'' or ''A Commander Being Dressed for Battle'' is a portrait of an unknown man in plate armour, normally attributed to Peter Paul Rubens. In July 2010 it was sold for £9 million by Christie's after Sotheby's turned it down, suspecting its authenticity as a Rubens. In December 2011, the portrait was placed on loan with the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. ==Description== The painting, done in oil on panel,〔 measures 48.25 × 38 3/8 in. (122.6 × 98.2 cm).〔 It depicts a military commander, as shown by his baton, being dressed by pages. The identity of the commander is unknown, although Charles V, Cornelis van der Geest, and the Duke of Alba〔 have all been identified as possible subjects. The Christie's cataloguer felt that the commander appears too idealized to be an actual person.〔 The painting has been praised for its crisp and intense hue and the reflective properties of the armour. If by Rubens, it would have been painted around 1613.〔
