Johann Wilhelm Windter's 1727 etching, "Portret van Wolfgang Jacob Nützel," depicts the subject standing with a relaxed pose, hand resting on a table. The detailed etching, a popular medium in the 18th century, shows Nützel, a prominent figure from Nuremberg, Germany, in a grand, formal attire, indicative of his status. This artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a fine example of portraiture during the Baroque era, offering a glimpse into the dress and social hierarchy of the time.
