"Portret van Cabrinus Fondalius" is an anonymous woodcut portrait from the late 16th century. The artwork depicts a man in armor, possibly a soldier or nobleman. He is holding a staff or a sword, which could suggest his military status. The detailed depiction of his armor is characteristic of woodcut illustrations from this period, as the medium was well-suited for rendering fine lines and textures. The background, featuring a church-like structure, may reference the patron or the setting where the individual is depicted. The piece is notable for its small size (108 mm high and 83 mm wide), indicating its potential use as a book illustration or a personal memento. The anonymity of the artist adds to the intrigue of this historical artwork.
