Cardinal De Mazarin by Robert Nanteuil is a renowned portrait engraving that captures the likeness of Jules Mazarin, a significant political figure in 17th-century France. Robert Nanteuil, a master engraver and portraitist of the Baroque period, is celebrated for his exceptional skill in rendering detailed and lifelike images. This particular work is a testament to Nanteuil's technical prowess and his ability to convey the personality and stature of his subjects.

Jules Mazarin, born Giulio Raimondo Mazzarino, was an Italian cardinal, diplomat, and politician who served as the Chief Minister to the French kings Louis XIII and Louis XIV. His influence was pivotal during the formative years of Louis XIV's reign, and he played a crucial role in the political and cultural development of France. Mazarin's tenure was marked by significant events such as the Fronde, a series of civil wars, and the negotiation of the Peace of Westphalia, which ended the Thirty Years' War.

Nanteuil's portrait of Cardinal Mazarin is notable for its meticulous attention to detail and the subtlety with which it captures the cardinal's features. The engraving showcases Nanteuil's ability to depict textures, such as the rich fabrics of Mazarin's garments and the intricate details of his lace collar. The expression on Mazarin's face is one of composed authority, reflecting his status and the complexities of his character.

This work is not only an artistic achievement but also a historical document that provides insight into the visual culture of the French court and the individuals who shaped its history. Nanteuil's portrait of Cardinal Mazarin remains a significant example of 17th-century portrait engraving and continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical value.
