Portret van Johann Michael Dilherr c. 1648 - 1663

Johann Pfann’s *Portret van Johann Michael Dilherr* (c. 1648-1663) is an engraving depicting Johann Michael Dilherr, a German theologian and educator, in a bust-length portrait. The engraving is framed by two angels, and Dilherr is holding a book in his left hand. The detail of the book in his hand suggests a man of learning, while the angels and the inscription at the bottom of the engraving highlight Dilherr’s religious and academic achievements. This engraving was created by Johann Pfann, a German engraver, painter, and printmaker, who was born in 1640 and died in 1680. The image showcases the detailed, realistic style typical of 17th-century engravings, with careful rendering of facial features, clothing, and the angels' wings.
