This print showcases the powerful presence of Count Henry of Brederode, a prominent figure in Dutch history. The portrait, created by the Flemish School in 1566, captures the essence of this young Dutch nobleman who fearlessly resisted the Spanish Inquisition and fought against despotism in the Netherlands. Count Henry's strong features are emphasized by his well-groomed beard and mustache, symbolizing his maturity and determination. His noble status is evident through his regal attire adorned with a coat of arms, proudly displaying his lineage. A majestic lion stands beside him as a representation of strength and courage. The intensity in Count Henry's gaze reflects his unwavering commitment to Protestantism during a time when religious tensions ran high. This engraving immortalizes him as an influential leader who defied oppressive forces for the sake of freedom. Housed at Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris, France, this historical artwork serves as a reminder of Count Henry's significant role in shaping Dutch history.
