Portret van Pierre Gillet 1713

"Portret van Pierre Gillet" is an etching by French artist Pierre Drevet, dating back to 1713. The artwork depicts Pierre Gillet, a prominent figure, in an oval frame against a textured background. The inscription around the frame identifies Gillet as a "Decanus et Procuratorum" - a Dean and Procurator. The intricate details of the etching, including the subject's clothing, the frame, and the inscription, showcase Drevet's mastery of this printmaking technique. The artwork, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, is a testament to the artist's skill in capturing the likeness and status of his subjects during the Baroque period.
