Artistic analysis

This is a copy of a Rembrandt painting made by someone from his studio. 

We see a middle-aged man who stands out because he wears a white turban on his head made of intertwined strands of hair, held in place by a gold clasp. He is dressed in a shirt with a gathered collar, and a gold pendant from which human busts emerge hangs from his chest. He also wears a black cloak decorated with “Judean bitumen.”
