This is a portrait engraving of Gertrude van Veen, created by Lucas Emil Vorsterman. The subject is depicted in an oval frame, which is typical of portraiture from the 17th century. She is dressed in elaborate clothing and jewelry, reflecting her status and wealth. The engraving includes Latin text below her portrait, perhaps a dedication or inscription. The image is a prime example of the engraver's art during the Baroque period and is a beautiful example of a portrait engraving.
