Portret van Jan Frans van Dael 1829

This lithograph by Jean-Baptiste Mauzaisse, created in 1829, depicts the artist Jan Frans van Dael, a prominent 19th-century Dutch landscape painter. The portrait showcases Van Dael in a formal pose, wearing a dark coat with a white cravat, his expression serious and introspective. The meticulous detail in the sitter's clothing and features reflects Mauzaisse's skill in capturing likeness and portraying social status. This artwork, currently held in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the life and career of one of the Netherlands' most celebrated artists.
