Portret van de heer Kirchner von Rettberg 1846

This portrait of Mr. Kirchner von Rettberg was created by Johann Phillip Walther in 1846. The lithograph, measuring 305 mm in height and 244 mm in width, depicts the subject in a seated pose, turned slightly to the left. He wears a formal coat and a white shirt with a dark bow tie, creating a contrast of light and dark. The artist's use of hatching and shading captures the texture of his clothing and the subtle lines of his face. Walther was a German lithographer known for his portraits and landscapes, and this piece demonstrates his skillful execution of the medium.
