This black and white engraving by French artist Jean Fouquet depicts Pope Eugene IV, who served as Pope from 1431 to 1447. The engraving features a detailed portrait of the Pope, including his distinctive facial features and the papal garb he wore during his time as head of the Catholic Church. The work is characterized by Fouquet's meticulous attention to detail, which is evident in the rendering of the Pope's clothing and the inscription below the portrait. The inscription, "EVGENIUS .IIII. P.P. VENETVS.", clearly identifies the subject of the artwork and provides valuable historical context for viewers.
