Portret van Georg Henrik Petri c. 1837 - 1840

This lithograph portrait of Georg Henrik Petri, created by N.M. Schild around 1837-1840, is a classic example of portraiture. The artwork, held in the Rijksmuseum, depicts Petri with a serious expression, his long hair and collar adding a formal touch. The artist's detailed rendering of the subject's features highlights their personality and status, making this portrait both a historical artifact and a testament to Schild's skill as a portraitist. The work is a valuable resource for understanding 19th-century portraiture and the life of Georg Henrik Petri.
