Portret van Johannes Hendrikus Molkenboer 1834 - 1888

This is a portrait of Johannes Hendrikus Molkenboer, created by Dutch artist Arnoldus Jacobus Kouwels between 1834 and 1888. The portrait depicts the sitter in a seated position, dressed in formal attire. The detailed rendering of the subject and the use of chiaroscuro techniques are characteristic of realist portraiture popular during the 19th century. This artwork is a fine example of a lithograph, a printmaking technique that uses a flat surface to create an image.
