This engraving, *Portret van János Zsámboky*, was created between 1597-1599 by Robert Boissard, a French engraver. This portrait of the Hungarian physician and writer János Zsámboky is a fine example of a Renaissance portrait, a style that was popular during this time. It is housed in the Rijksmuseum. The engraving shows Zsámboky in a formal pose with a book resting in front of him. It's a striking portrait of a man of learning and an important figure in Hungarian history.
