Portret van Jacob Ernst Marcus 1798 - 1826

This engraving by Dutch artist Ernst Willem Jan Bagelaar, created between 1798 and 1826, depicts Jacob Ernst Marcus. The image features a detailed portrait of Marcus, wearing a top hat and formal attire of the period, in a realistic style common to the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The work's small scale, measuring just 120 mm by 92 mm, suggests it was likely intended for personal use or as a part of a collection of portraits. The artist, Bagelaar, was known for his engravings and portraits, and this piece is a fine example of his skill in capturing likeness and detail.
