Portret van Friedrich Arnaud, eerste hertog van Schomberg 1724

This 1724 engraving by Bernard Picart depicts Friedrich Arnaud, the first Duke of Schomberg, in an oval frame. Arnaud is portrayed in a three-quarter view, looking over his shoulder and wearing a suit of armor. The meticulous detail in the engraving is characteristic of Picart's work, a prominent French artist known for his prints. The portrait, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the fashion and military attire of the early 18th century, while also capturing the dignity and authority of the Duke.
