Portret van Sebastian Brand 1759 - 1815

Heinrich Pfenninger, a Swiss artist, created this engraved portrait of Sebastian Brand, a prominent figure of the era. The engraving, dating back to the late 18th century, is a small-scale work measuring just 126 mm in height and 83 mm in width. The portrait, presented in an oval frame, features Brand in profile, adorned in a fur-trimmed hat and coat, capturing the subject's refined appearance. Pfenninger's skill in detail is evident in the intricate rendering of Brand's clothing and the subtle shading that defines his features. This artwork serves as a valuable historical record of the period, showcasing the artistic style and notable figures of the time.
