About this work

An oval engraved portrait shows an elderly bald, bearded man in a dark hooded robe, holding a quill pen over an open book beside shelves of books. A Latin inscription in the lower cartouche names Luke Wadding, a Irish Franciscan chronologist who died in Rome on 18 November 1657 at age 70. The engraving is credited to Carlo Maratta as designer and Andreas Rubeis as engraver, dated 1721.
