Portret van Jean-de-Dieu Soult 1822 - 1845

This anonymous engraving, created sometime between 1822 and 1845, depicts Jean-de-Dieu Soult, a prominent French military figure. The artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, captures Soult's likeness with detail, focusing on his face and the upper part of his body. The print is a testament to the popularity of portraiture in the 19th century and reflects the admiration for military leaders of the time. The artwork's small size, measuring 240mm x 150mm, suggests it was likely intended for personal viewing or as part of a collection.
