This engraving by François Gonord, created between 1794 and 1800, depicts Isaac da Costa Athias in profile. The portrait is set within a circular frame, a common practice for engravings of the time. The inscription beneath the portrait identifies Athias as a member of the National Assembly, highlighting his role in Dutch politics. Gonord, a prominent engraver of the late 18th century, captures Athias’s likeness with delicate detail and a sense of realism, offering a glimpse into the life of an influential figure of the period.
