This 1704 etching by Giovanni Girolamo Frezza, titled "Titelprent met portret van schilder Francesco Albani met engelen en de personificatie van de schilderkunst," is a portrait of the Italian painter Francesco Albani. The work is an allegorical composition, featuring Albani in a circular frame held by a putto. The figure of Painting, holding a drawing board and a palette, sits beneath the portrait. The composition is framed by two angels and a draped curtain. The piece highlights Albani's legacy through its allegorical figures and the inscription "Pictvra Francisci Albani in aede Verospia." Frezza, a 17th-century artist, is known for his intricate etchings and depictions of classical subjects.
