Portret van David Vlugh 1858 - 1862

"Portret van David Vlugh", created between 1858 and 1862 by Dutch artist Frederik Hendrik Weissenbruch, is a lithograph that depicts the subject in a formal portrait setting. The image, housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases Vlugh in a richly ornamented costume, highlighting his status and power. The use of a cannon and other military symbols suggest Vlugh's military role, making this a striking example of 19th century portraiture. The artwork, measuring just 131 mm by 98 mm, is a testament to Weissenbruch's skill in capturing details within a small format.
