Johann Christian Marchand's "Portret van Stephan Jacob Silberrad in allegorische omlijsting" (1690-1711) is a Baroque etching featuring a formal portrait of Stephan Jacob Silberrad within a decorative frame. The frame is filled with allegorical figures representing Justice, Strength and other symbolic elements, including a coat of arms. Two cherubs sit in the lower center of the work, holding shields representing Faith and Hope, highlighting Silberrad's social standing and religious beliefs. This highly detailed and symbolic work exemplifies the style of portraiture popular during the Baroque period.
