Adriaen van Swieten is a 1579 ink by Hendrik Goltzius, a Renaissance work, held at National Gallery of Art.
The image depicts a man with a ruffled collar, sporting a beard and curly hair. He wears a jacket adorned with a sash and a chain, and a coat of arms is visible to his right. The background features a textured pattern. The man's attire and the coat of arms suggest a sense of nobility or prestige. The intricate details in the engraving, such as the cross-hatching, add depth and texture to the image. This portrait is reminiscent of the work of Goltzius, Hendrick, a master of Renaissance engraving.
Hendrick Goltzius (German: , Dutch: ; né Goltz; January or February 1558 – 1 January 1617) was a German-born Dutch printmaker, draftsman, and painter.
