Jacob Houbraken's "Portretten van Anton van Dyck en Jacob de Bray" is a 1708-1780 etching that portrays two renowned artists: Anton van Dyck and Jacob de Bray. The work is a double portrait, with van Dyck's likeness framed within a decorative oval, and de Bray's face in a circular frame, both set against a gray backdrop. Houbraken, a prominent Dutch etcher, masterfully captures the details of the two artists, their clothing, and the intricate framing elements, highlighting the subjects' accomplishments. This etching, now held at the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to the artistic legacy of both van Dyck and de Bray.
