Artists and Engravers: Made by 'F. Sansom' after 'P. Wagenaar'. F. Sansom was an English engraver, from London. He worked around 1788-1790 in Rotterdam. P. Wagenaar / Wagenaer (Dutch) was active as print designer around 1780-1800.

Subject: Antique Master Print, untitled. Portrait of Pieter van Woensel. Pieter van Woensel (Haarlem, 1747 – The Hague, 1808) was a physician, adventurer, travel writer, ships doctor, political cartoonist and a colorful author under the pseudonym Amurath-Effendi, Hekim-Bachi in the satirical almanac de Lantaarn (the Lamp). Typical for Van Woensel is his love for the peculiar, dislike for the easy route and inborn tendency towards the paradoxical. (source wikipedia)
