"Portret van Pál Vadászi" is an etching by Elias Widemann created in 1646. The artwork depicts a bust portrait of Pál Vadászi, a military commander. Vadászi is shown in a military uniform, with a stern expression and a thick mustache. The artwork is framed by an oval, which is surrounded by a rectangular border. The frame is decorated with ornate details, and the inscription "VICE CAPTAN. A° 1646. PAVLVS VADASI S.C.R.M. LEVIS EQVIT. COLONEL. IN FILEK." is inscribed around the oval. This work, now at the Rijksmuseum, is a fine example of portraiture and etching during the Dutch Golden Age.
