Adriaen van Stalbemt is a 1634 ink by Paulus Pontius, a Baroque work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This portrait shows a man with a ruffled collar and a cloak, looking to the left. His right hand is tucked into his cloak, and he wears a ring on his finger. The background is a solid color. The man's face is detailed, with a mustache and a serious expression. The engraving technique used to create the portrait is evident in the fine lines and cross-hatching that make up the image.
