This 1839 lithograph by A.D. Schinkel is a certificate presented to baker Korff by the Archaeological Society of Athens, conferring on him honorary membership. It features a decorative border, two columns of text, and a portrait of Korff in a circular frame at the top. This artwork exemplifies the aesthetic ideals of Neoclassicism, popular in the 19th century, which looked to Ancient Greece and Rome for inspiration in art and architecture. Today, the artwork is housed at the Rijksmuseum.
