Lucas Kilian’s *Portret van Wolfgang Sigismund von Losenstein* (1614) is an engraving portraying Wolfgang Sigismund von Losenstein, a prominent figure in the Habsburg court. The portrait depicts him in an oval frame, wearing a ruff collar, and a formal, dark, embroidered coat with a large number of buttons. The print has an inscription in Latin that describes Losenstein's achievements. The work is an example of Kilian's skill as an engraver, and it is a valuable document of the life and times of a prominent noble of the early 17th century.
