Portret van Gottfried August Bürger 1810 - 1869

Franz Xaver Eissner's "Portret van Gottfried August Bürger" is a black and white portrait print that captures the likeness of the German poet and critic, Gottfried August Bürger. The artwork is a portrait of Bürger, and depicts him in a formal pose, with a powdered wig, coat, and cravat. The print was made sometime between 1810 and 1869, shortly after Bürger's death. Eissner, an Austrian artist known for his engravings, expertly captures the details of Bürger's face and clothing, and provides a glimpse into the fashion and style of the early 19th century.
