Portret van Johannes Brandenberg 1755 - 1757

"Portret van Johannes Brandenberg" is an etching by Swiss artist Rudolf Füssli, created between 1755 and 1757. The portrait depicts Johannes Brandenberg, a figure surrounded by a tree and a classical column, all rendered in black and white. Füssli's use of etching and his detailed depiction of the subject in the style of the Dutch Golden Age portrays the individual in a realistic and dignified manner. The small size of the artwork, measuring only 125 mm high and 85 mm wide, suggests it was intended for a private collection.
