The work, likely completed between 1686 and 1693, is a formal portrait depicting the subject in a laurel wreath, a symbol of honor and victory, and includes a coat of arms, indicating the sitter’s noble status. This detail highlights the engraved portrait's function as a commemorative piece. The detailed depiction of the sitter's attire, including a visible piece of armor, suggests a military or political figure. The engraving is currently in the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
