This small, oval portrait of Anna of Denmark, Queen of Scotland, is an engraving created by Simon van de Passe, a renowned Dutch engraver active in the early 17th century. The image is a close-up of Anna’s face, adorned with a jeweled headband and elaborate ruff, and captures her regal bearing. The fine lines and intricate details of van de Passe's work make it a prime example of the craftsmanship of the period. It’s currently located in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
