Johannes Arnoldus Boland created this engraving, "Portret van Jacobus van Miggrode," in 1866. The portrait depicts Jacobus van Miggrode, a Dutch minister, in a close-up view. He is shown wearing a fur-trimmed collar and a cap, while his stern expression and prominent beard reflect his stature as a religious figure. The portrait is framed by a circular inscription detailing Miggrode's roles and titles, highlighting his position as a prominent religious leader. The inscription also includes a Latin phrase that translates to "curator, educator, and catechist," further emphasizing his role in guiding his congregation. This engraving provides valuable insight into the life and work of a prominent Dutch minister from the 17th century.
