Portret van William Wynne Ryland 1770 - 1783

This portrait of William Wynne Ryland, created by Karl Goepfert between 1770 and 1783, is a delicate and intimate depiction. The artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases Ryland in profile, his features rendered in a meticulous and realistic style characteristic of the 18th century. The small size of the piece further emphasizes its personal nature, suggesting it was likely intended for private viewing. The print is notable for its use of a reddish-brown tone, adding a sense of warmth and depth to the image.
