Portret van Ákos Barcsay, prins van Transsylvanië after 1658

This engraved portrait of Ákos Barcsay, prince of Transylvania, was created by Cesare Laurentio after 1658. The artwork depicts Barcsay in profile, wearing a fur-trimmed cap with feathers and armor, holding a scepter. The intricate details of the armor and the inscription below the portrait, "SCHATTO BARCZAY PRINCIPE DI TRANSILVANIA," add to the historical significance of this piece. The use of an oval frame and the detailed rendering of Barcsay's features are characteristic of Renaissance portraiture. This portrait provides a glimpse into the life and attire of a prominent figure of 17th-century Transylvania.
