"Portret van Nicolaas Pieneman" is a small, anonymous engraving depicting a man in a coat and cravat. The artist, unknown, created this work in the early 19th century using an engraving technique. This type of portraiture was popular during the time and served as a means to immortalize individuals. The image is intimate and conveys the sitter's individual character through detailed features, as well as the expressive use of light and shadow. The small dimensions of the artwork suggest it was likely a personal or private commission.
