This 1648 engraving by Hans Andreas Greys depicts Hans Krabbe til Søgård, a Danish nobleman, surrounded by heraldic shields representing his family lineage. The portrait, framed by an arch adorned with coats of arms, showcases Krabbe's distinguished attire and a serious expression. The inscription below the image details Krabbe's death in December 1648 and references his prominent role in the local community. This piece provides insight into 17th-century Danish portraiture and heraldic tradition.
