"Portret van Du Viger" is a 1691 etching by Dutch artist Jacob Gole, depicting the subject in profile within a circular frame. The caricatured portrait emphasizes Du Viger's exaggerated features and smirking expression, likely intended as a satirical commentary on his political role. This print, now in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies Gole's skill in capturing individual personalities through visual exaggeration, a hallmark of 17th-century Dutch printmaking.
