Jeanne d'Albret, Queen of Navarre, Mother of Henry IV of France

Executed in the Baroque style, the engraving showcases detailed realism and classical influences, characteristic of Lairesse's work. Although often associated with the Baroque, Lairesse's approach, as outlined in his later treatises, emphasizes geometric precision, blending Baroque detail with classical restraint.

Created in 1676 by Gerard de Lairesse, a Dutch artist theorist influenced by Italian and French classicism (notably Cesare Ripa and Charles le Brun), this engraving postdates Rembrandt's era, positioning it within the later Dutch Golden Age.

The engraving's classical and formal conventions align with the artistic preferences of the late 17th century, reflecting the enduring influence of French and Italian classicist traditions in Dutch art during this period.
