This engraving, created by Dutch artist Hendrick Hondius I in 1608, depicts King Henry IV of France, who reigned from 1589 until his assassination in 1610. Hondius, a leading portrait engraver of his time, captured Henry IV's regal bearing and distinctive facial features. The engraving, which is now in the collection of the Rijksmuseum, showcases the meticulous detail and technical mastery of Hondius's work.
