This portrait depicts Simon Du Bois (1632-1706) , a Dutch-born painter active in England during the late Stuart period. Du Bois represents the cultural exchange between continental Europe and England, bringing Northern European portrait traditions into English artistic circles. The engraving reflects the stylistic hybridity characteristic of late seventeenth-century portraiture
