"Portret van Oliver Cromwell" is an engraving by Pierre Drevet, a prominent French artist known for his portraits. Created between 1673 and 1738, the artwork depicts Oliver Cromwell, Lord Protector of the Commonwealth of England, Scotland, and Ireland, in an oval frame. The portrait is accompanied by a still life, featuring hunting tools and a fox pelt, suggestive of Cromwell's role as a military leader. The detailed engraving, held at the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies the technical mastery of Drevet, and the image offers a glimpse into historical figures and their representation in art.
