Portret van Anthony van Dyck after 1844

This 19th century print, created by Joseph Schubert, depicts a portrait of Anthony van Dyck. The print is an engraving, a technique that involves carving into a metal plate to create an image. The artist’s use of shading and detail bring a realistic quality to the piece, showcasing van Dyck in a simple, yet elegant, pose. This work, now in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to Schubert’s skill in capturing the likeness of a famous artist.
