This 18th-century engraving by Matthijs Pool, titled "Portret van Claude le Blanc," depicts a portrait of Claude le Blanc, likely a prominent figure of the time. The artwork, housed in the Rijksmuseum, is executed in a classic portrait style with a focus on detail and realism. The subject is presented in an oval frame, adding a formal and traditional aesthetic to the piece. While the engraving is small in size, it effectively captures the likeness and presence of the sitter, demonstrating Pool's skill as a portraitist.
