"Sigismund Bathory" is an engraving by Aegidius Sadeler, also known as Aegidius Sadeler II, a renowned Flemish engraver of the late 16th and early 17th centuries. This particular work is a portrait of Sigismund Báthory, a Prince of Transylvania and member of the Báthory noble family, which was prominent in Eastern Europe during the period. The engraving is part of a larger body of work by Sadeler that includes portraits of European nobility and other significant figures of his time.

The engraving likely served both as a work of art and as a means of disseminating the image of Sigismund Báthory to a broader audience, which was a common practice in the era before photography. Sadeler's meticulous technique and attention to detail are evident in the rendering of Báthory's features, attire, and the intricate details of his surroundings, which may include symbolic elements reflective of his status and achievements.

Aegidius Sadeler was born into a family of artists and became the most famous of the Sadeler family of engravers. His works are characterized by their high quality and the influence of his travels through Europe, where he encountered various artistic styles and subjects. The engraving of Sigismund Báthory would have been created using a copper plate, upon which Sadeler etched the design with a burin, allowing for multiple impressions to be printed and distributed.

The portrait of Sigismund Báthory by Aegidius Sadeler holds historical significance as it captures the likeness of a key figure in Eastern European history and exemplifies the portrait engraving techniques of the late Renaissance. It remains an important piece for scholars studying the period's art, politics, and the role of printmaking in the cultural exchange and propagation of images.
