‘CARDINALIS. ANDREAS AB AUSTRIA (AROUND THE OVAL FRAME), FOLIO 911. (BOTTOM LEFT), FIGURA XVI. (BOTTOM RIGHT)’

– A finely executed etching and engraving depicting Andrew of Austria (1558-1600), a prominent Habsburg cardinal and statesman. He is portrayed in an elaborate, decorative oval frame, wearing a zucchetto and cardinal robes. The portrait exudes authority and solemnity, befitting his roles as Bishop of Constance, Bishop of Brixen, Governor General of the Habsburg Netherlands, and Abbot of Murbach. The frame features elaborate Baroque ornamentation, enhancing the grandeur of the composition. This portrait, likely produced around 1630, captures the influence of Habsburg rule and ecclesiastical power during the early 17th century.
