Portret van Johan Evertsen 1749 - 1760

This engraving, created between 1749 and 1760 by Dutch artist Jacob Houbraken, depicts Johan Evertsen, a Lieutenant Admiral from Zeeland. The portrait is framed within an oval and features detailed lines to create a sense of realism. The engraving likely served as an illustration in a biographical publication on Evertsen, highlighting his significant contributions to Dutch naval history. Houbraken, a prominent engraver of the 18th century, was known for his meticulous attention to detail, which is evident in this piece. The work is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, a testament to its cultural importance.
