This 16th-century engraving by Jost Amman depicts Gaspard de Coligny, Admiral of France. The intricate design features a portrait of Coligny in a circular frame, surrounded by ornate details, including an angel, a woman holding a baby, and a stylized landscape. The lower portion of the print shows a scene of battle, possibly a historical event related to Coligny's military career. Amman's detailed work is a testament to the artistic advancements of the Renaissance period.
