This engraving by Dutch artist Pieter Hendrik Jonxis depicts Paul Henri Marron, a French theologian. Created in 1786, the portrait showcases Marron in a formal pose, wearing the traditional attire of a clergyman. The use of a simple, oval frame and the focused composition emphasize the subject's dignified presence. The work highlights Jonxis' skill in capturing detail and expression, creating a realistic depiction of Marron. This artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into 18th-century portraiture and the life of a notable religious figure.
