This engraving, "Buyltje On-versaed en Waernar Altijdt-meer," by Johannes of Lucas van Doetechum, features two portraits, possibly of a man and a woman, within oval frames. The artwork, created between 1612 and 1652, is a fine example of a portrait engraving, a popular genre of the time. The etching style and the use of hatching lines contribute to a realistic depiction of the subjects' faces and attire. The engravings are part of a larger series of portraits, highlighting the importance of visual representation in the early modern era. The artwork is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
