Portret van Magdalena Constantia Verhaast 1789

"Portret van Magdalena Constantia Verhaast" is a 1789 engraving by Dutch artist Jan Gerard Waldorp (1740-1808). The work depicts a bust portrait of Magdalena Constantia Verhaast within an elaborate frame, adorned with cherubs and a garland. The inscription at the bottom suggests the portrait is a dedication to a close friend, reflecting the personal nature of the piece. This intimate engraving, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases Waldorp's mastery of portraiture and decorative detail, typical of the late 18th-century Dutch art scene.
