Portret van Leopold I, keizer van Duitsland 1628 - 1670

This engraving, created by Pieter de Jode II between 1628 and 1670, depicts Leopold I, Holy Roman Emperor, in a formal portrait. The detail of his royal attire, including the crown, sword, and orb, conveys his status and authority. The use of etching and engraving techniques creates a sense of depth and texture, typical of 17th-century printmaking. This artwork, held in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the visual culture and political imagery of the time.
