This engraving, "Portret van koning Sancho I van Portugal," created by Cornelis Galle I in 1621, depicts King Sancho I of Portugal, the second king of Portugal, in full armor and a crown. Galle I, a prominent engraver of the Dutch Golden Age, used a fine line technique to create a detailed and realistic portrayal of the king. The work, now in the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into the history and visual culture of 17th century Portugal.
