This engraving, *Portret van Joannes Munnekemolen*, created in 1756 by Dutch artist Jacob Houbraken (1698-1780) is a portrait of the preacher Joannes Munnekemolen. It depicts him seated in a window niche, a book resting on the ledge before him. Houbraken's detailed portrayal of Munnekemolen, with his long white wig and somber expression, reveals the artist's meticulous attention to detail and mastery of engraving techniques. This work is housed in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, and provides valuable insights into the lives of 18th-century Dutch intellectuals.
