This anonymous portrait depicts Joan Wielant, a figure from Dutch history. The drawing is a simple, yet effective representation of the subject's face and upper torso. Created sometime between 1700 and 1900, it offers a glimpse into the artistic style of its time. The artwork, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a small-scale piece, measuring only 189 millimeters in height and 132 millimeters in width.
