This engraving by Wilhelm Heuer depicts Hertug Christian of Augustenborg in an oval portrait format, a common style for portraiture in the early 19th century. The subject is depicted in military uniform, likely a high-ranking officer, with intricate details of his clothing and medals. The image is a testament to Heuer's skill in rendering fine details through the medium of engraving, creating a striking likeness of Hertug Christian. The artwork is currently held in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, Denmark.
