"Portret van Gebhard Truchesess" is a 16th-century engraving by Frans Hogenberg, depicting Gebhard Truchesess, the Archbishop and Elector of Cologne. The portrait shows Truchesess in a formal pose, wearing a ruff and a coat, with his face slightly turned to the side. The engraving is part of a larger collection of portraits by Hogenberg, many of which are held in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam. This small-scale engraving, only 117mm by 116mm, uses delicate lines to create a detailed likeness of Truchesess.
