Franse koopman aan de kade c. 1630

"Franse Koopman aan de Kade" is an engraving by Isaac Briot, a French artist working in the 17th century. The artwork depicts a Dutch merchant standing on a quay overlooking the sea, with a ship sailing in the distance. The figure is dressed in the fashionable attire of the time, with a wide-brimmed hat, a cloak, and breeches. The engraving is a good example of the realism and detail that were characteristic of Briot’s work. This detailed artwork serves as a window into the lives of Dutch merchants during the 17th century.
