Description:
Rare and highly detailed copper engraving portrait of Prince Jerzy Sebastian Lubomirski (1616 – 1667), Count of Wiśnicz and Jarosław. He was a major figure in Polish history, particularly noted for his role during the Swedish Deluge, where he remained loyal to the Polish king. However, he is perhaps most famous for leading the Lubomirski Rebellion (1665–1666) against King John II Casimir, which significantly weakened the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth.
The print comes from Galeazzo Gualdo Priorato book “Historia di Leopoldo Cesare, continente le cose piu memorabili successe in Europa, dal 1656 fino al 1670. Descritta dal co. Galeazzo Gualdo Priorato…”, engraved by Frans van der Steen, original drawing by Jan de Herdt (signed “I.D. Herdt del”), published by Johann Baptist Hacque in Vienna,1670.
