Portret van Hans Carl von Carolath-Beuthen 1741 - 1767

This engraving by Johann Martin Bernigeroth, created between 1741 and 1767, depicts Hans Carl von Carolath-Beuthen. The portrait is a close-up of the subject's face and upper torso, highlighting the details of his attire and the formal setting. The subject's powdered wig, military garb, and the presence of an elaborate sash suggest a nobleman with high social standing. The work, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases Bernigeroth's skill in capturing likeness and detail within a small format. The engraving style is characteristic of the 18th century, with its focus on realism and technical precision.
