Reproductie van een gravure van een portret van Marten Rijckaert door Jacob Neef before 1877

This reproduction of a portrait of Marten Rijckaert by Jacob Neef was created by Joseph Maes in the late 19th century. The portrait depicts Rijckaert, a prominent 17th century figure, in a seated pose. The artwork is a black and white reproduction of a gravure, a type of printmaking technique that uses an etched metal plate to create images. Reproductions are a type of artwork that serve as a copy of an existing artwork and can be used to distribute the original image more widely. This reproduction is quite small, measuring only 110 mm in height and 90 mm in width. The detailed work of the engraver can be appreciated through the reproduced artwork, with a clear and well-defined portrayal of Rijckaert.
