Portret van Frans Greenwood 1720 - 1792

This engraving, "Portret van Frans Greenwood" by Dutch artist Aert Schouman, showcases a portrait of Frans Greenwood. The piece, created between 1720-1792, features a detailed and realistic representation of the subject. The composition places Greenwood in the foreground, with a draped female figure peeking over his shoulder, possibly symbolizing the muses of art and music. The inclusion of a lyre, a traditional musical instrument associated with ancient Greek mythology, further reinforces the connection to the arts. This print is a testament to Schouman's skill in capturing both likeness and character.
