Jacob Houbraken
Jacob Houbraken belongs to the tradition of Dutch reproductive printmaking, known for portrait plates carried out in etching and engraving. The archive holds a single sheet from this practice, dated 1733, the example being his Portrait of Thomas Howard, Earl of Arundel and Surrey. Because the date range given by the Met may reflect impressions up to 1733 rather than the artist's lifetime alone, the record is best read as documenting later printing as well.
