"Portret van Cavallero" is a 1750-1765 etching by Reinier Vinkeles, a Dutch artist known for his portraits and landscapes. The etching, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a man in a three-quarter bust portrait, wearing a hat and a somber expression. The engraving technique, using lines and shading, captures the subject's features and the text at the bottom offers insight into the sitter's life. The etching's small dimensions and the careful detail of the subject's face make this a striking example of Vinkeles' skill in capturing the individual's character.
