Petrus Stevens

Lucas Emil Vorsterman after Sir Anthony van Dyck

National Gallery of Art

The image is an engraved portrait depicting the upper torso of a man. He is shown in a three-quarter view with his right arm posed akimbo, placing his hand on his hip. The man has a full mustache and goatee, along with wavy hair that is slightly receding at the temples. He wears a large ruffled collar that extends over his shoulders and a dark garment. A ring is visible on one of his fingers. The background features a detailed cross-hatch pattern, and the name "PETRUS STEVENS" is inscribed below the portrait.
