This engraving, *Portret van Bernhard Khevenhüller, heer van Aichelberg*, was created by Johann Friedrich Leonard in 1669. The detailed portrait depicts Bernhard Khevenhüller, a prominent figure in the Holy Roman Empire, dressed in elaborate attire and holding a sword. The inscription below the image provides information about his titles and affiliations, including his roles as a "Freiherr zu Aichelberg" and a "Stallmeister" (stable master). The engraving's precise composition and fine detail are characteristic of Leonard's work, which often focused on portraits of individuals in positions of power and influence. This artwork provides a glimpse into the visual culture and social hierarchy of 17th-century Europe.
