"Johannes Gutenberg" is a lithograph by Danish artist Andreas Flinch, created between 1813 and 1872. The artwork, currently housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, depicts a standing figure of Johannes Gutenberg, a prominent figure in the history of printing, holding a book. The black and gold palette creates a strong contrast, highlighting Gutenberg's form against a dark background, creating a visually striking and evocative representation of this historical figure.
