This is a small portrait of O. baron van Wassenaer van Catwijck, an anonymous work from before 1867. The portrait is printed on a page of a book, a popular method of disseminating images in the 19th century. The image is small, measuring only 23mm by 23mm, which suggests that it was likely intended as an illustration for a biography or a historical text. The portrait captures the sitter in a formal pose, emphasizing his status and social standing. The artist's anonymity underscores the function of the image within its historical context. This small portrait, though created by an unknown artist, offers a glimpse into the past and a person of historical significance.
