An engraving of Dirck (Theodor) Volkertsz. Coornhert (1522–1590), Dutch engraver, philosopher, man of letters, poet and jurist.  A head and shoulders portrait, with brimmed hat. A preparatory drawing for the print is in Haarlem. This print is lettered at upper left: "Obijt A.^o 1590. / CC. [monogram] pinx:"; at upper right: "Ætat: suæ 68.;" at left centre: "JML. [monogram] f.;" along the bottom: "THEODORVS COORNHERTIVS AMSTELREDAMVS.".

The print formed part of an album of portrait prints assembled by Cassiano dal Pozzo in Rome. Described in an early nineteenth-century inventory of prints in George III's library as German Litterati, the album was dismantled later in the nineteenth century and its contents sold during the early twentieth century, when only a few of Cassiano's foreign non-royal portrait prints were retained for the collection.
