Johannes Herzog bot Marlborough General capitain aller Englishchen Trouppen, ..Teutschland.

(John Churchill- First Duke of Marlborough”.

Publ. c. 1650-89, Germany. Engraved by Johann Lorentz Honing.

Rare likely mid- 17th century engraved portrait. Below the print near edge is written by an early hand “rare”.

Print has been long ago expertly mounted along the sliver edges to a larger sheet of nice hand-made paper in order to mount it at one point into a print collection album.

The backing sheet is mostly cut away, allowing the print sheet to be completely examined front and back.

A tiny hole middle left above vegetation.

Pictures capture condition better than words, please review them carefully.

Nice copper engraved portrait, over 400 years old, so not new but no problem or issues aside from normal visible signs of handling, time and age common to most surviving paper images of this era.

Backing sheet measures c. 13 5/8" H x 8 5/8" W.

Engraved Image area c. 11 5/8" x 7 7/8".
