This engraving by Dutch artist Jacob Houbraken depicts Peter the Great, the Tsar of Russia. Created between 1725 and 1780, the work shows Peter in a regal portrait, wearing armor and surrounded by ornate details including a curtain, a decorative frame, and a banner with cannons at the bottom. The engraving is a testament to the artist's skill in capturing the details of Peter's appearance and personality. The work, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a valuable historical artifact and a testament to the artistic prowess of the Dutch Golden Age.
