Portret van meneer Caveller 1694 - 1756

This engraving by John (II) Faber depicts Mr. Caveller, a dancing master, and is a fine example of 18th-century portraiture. The subject is shown in a three-quarter pose, his hand resting on a table, and his face bearing a serious expression. The artist’s meticulous attention to detail is evident in the rendering of Caveller's clothing, with the intricate folds of his coat and the delicate lace of his cuffs. The engraving was likely intended for personal use or as a part of a larger collection of portraits. Faber was a prolific engraver, known for his skilled use of line and his ability to capture a likeness. This artwork demonstrates the artist's mastery of this technique.
