Pieter de Jode I after Adriaen Pietersz van de Venne

National Gallery of Art

The image is an engraving showing the upper half of a man's body. He is in a three-quarter view, facing slightly to his right and looking directly at the viewer. The man has a slightly receding hairline, short hair, a well-trimmed beard, and mustache. He has a serious and contemplative expression. He is wearing a dark cloak over a ruffled collar, holding a closed book in his left hand and resting his right hand on top of it. The background features an ornate oval frame with inscriptions and stylized embellishments.
