Portret van Petrus Bortius 1657 - 1707

This engraving, "Portret van Petrus Bortius," is a portrait of Petrus Bortius, a Dutch clergyman, created by Dutch artist Hendrik Bary between 1657 and 1707. The image depicts Bortius in a three-quarter-length portrait, his figure filling the foreground, with his body turned slightly to the left while his gaze is directed towards the viewer. The use of chiaroscuro in the engraving emphasizes the details of his features. The engraved inscription at the bottom indicates that the print was made by the engraver J.D. Tollius. It is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
