Hermann Jakob Tyroff's 1758 engraving, "Portret van Ferdinand hertog van Brunswijk-Wolfenbüttel", showcases Ferdinand, Duke of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel, in an oval frame. The inscription above Ferdinand, "VTELARIS PATRIAE GENIVS", translates to "Guardian Genius of the Fatherland," highlighting his role as a protector. This portrait, executed in the meticulous style of 18th-century engraving, conveys a sense of power and authority through Ferdinand's confident gaze and military attire.
