Hi,
The basic structure here is render + something + adjective.eg The poiceman renered the bomb hrmless.
The idea in your text is
her face . . . was rendered . . . intelligent ( by the beautiful expression of her dark eyes )
It's a passive voice version.
The active voice would be
eg .' ' ' the beautiful expression of her dark eyes rendered
