Portret van Albrecht Ludwig Jacob Harder op 45-jarige leeftijd 1732

This 1732 engraving by Philipp Gottfried Harder depicts Albrecht Ludwig Jacob Harder at the age of 45. The image is a portrait, a popular genre in the 18th century, and shows Harder seated in a room with a book in his hand, likely a religious text. The detail of his robe and the book suggest he was a religious figure and the inscription below the frame confirms he was a deacon at St. Ulrich in Augsburg. The inscription also indicates the year of the portrait's creation, and Harder's age at the time. This artwork provides a glimpse into the life of a prominent 18th-century clergyman.
