This anonymous print, created sometime between 1833 and 1850, is a portrait of the renowned French painter Nicolas Poussin. The artwork, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, presents Poussin in a simple yet dignified manner, capturing the artist's likeness in a detailed and realistic style. The print's inscription, "Publié par van Lier frères, à La Haye," reveals its origins as a publication by the van Lier brothers in The Hague. This lithograph likely aimed to disseminate Poussin's image and contribute to his growing fame during the 19th century.
