This 1672 engraving by Johann Friedrich Leonard depicts Philippus Geuder, a senator from Nuremberg. The portrait, framed by an oval, showcases Geuder's austere countenance, with a focus on his prominent beard and detailed clothing. The use of hatching lines and stippling in the engraving creates a sense of realism, highlighting the individual features of the sitter. This work serves as a valuable historical record of a prominent figure in Nuremberg's society during the 17th century.
