This etching by Nicolas de Larmessin, completed between 1647 and 1678, depicts Odo I, a prominent figure in medieval French history. The portrait presents a detailed image of Odo, showcasing his royal attire, including a crown and armor, highlighting his status and power. The use of a circular frame, ornate ribbons, and a heraldic shield with fleur-de-lis, common elements in royal portraiture, emphasize the significance of Odo's role in the French monarchy. The etching, currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the artistry of the 17th century and provides a visual representation of a historical figure.
