This 1750 engraving by Pieter Tanjé is a portrait of Joannes Vollenhove. The image is a title page for a publication of Vollenhove's works, “Kruistriomf en Gezangen.” The portrait of Vollenhove is encased in an elaborate frame of foliage and allegorical figures, including a woman with a laurel wreath and a cherub holding a trumpet. The artwork, housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases the intricate detail and refined style of 18th-century Dutch engraving.
