Johann August Corvinus's 1711 engraving, "Portret van Johannes Tulla op 49-jarige leeftijd," depicts Johannes Tulla, a prominent figure in 18th-century Dutch society, at the age of 49. The portrait is a testament to Corvinus's skill in capturing likeness and detail, evident in Tulla's stoic expression and meticulously rendered clothing. The inscription surrounding the oval portrait, along with the inscription beneath it, provides historical context and insights into the subject's character. The work is a valuable historical artifact, offering a glimpse into the life of an influential individual during a significant period in Dutch history.
