Portret van Anton Ulrich von Erath 1760

This 1760 engraving by Johann Martin Bernigeroth depicts Anton Ulrich von Erath in an oval frame, a common design choice for portraits during this period. The inclusion of his family crest below the portrait emphasizes his noble status. Bernigeroth, known for his detailed engravings, masterfully captures the sitter's likeness, showcasing his clothing and powdered wig, hallmarks of 18th-century fashion. The artwork, housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a fine example of portraiture from the Rococo era.
