Stephanus Paschinus is a 1617 ink by Léonard Gaultier, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
The image is an engraving of a man's portrait, with the title "Stephanus Paschinus" written around the oval frame. The man is depicted wearing a dark robe and a hat, with a serious expression on his face. He has a long beard and is looking directly at the viewer. The engraving is done in a detailed and intricate style, with cross-hatching techniques used to create shading and texture. The background of the image is a dark gray color, which helps to highlight the subject's features. This engraving is a great example of the Baroque movement's emphasis on detail and realism.

Léonard Gaultier, or, as he sometimes signed himself, Galter, a French engraver, was born at Mainz about 1561, and died in Paris in 1641.
