This engraving, titled "Portret van Johannes Antonius Tucher," was created in 1675 by Dutch artist Alexander (II) Voet. It depicts Johannes Antonius Tucher, a prominent figure, in an oval frame surrounded by a decorative border. The border is filled with coats of arms, reflecting his lineage and social status. Voet, known for his meticulous detail and masterful use of light and shadow, captures Tucher in a dignified pose, emphasizing his position of power and authority. This print, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, is a valuable historical document, offering insight into Dutch society during the 17th century.
