Portret van Heinrich Erndel 1675 - 1748

This engraving by Moritz Bodenehr, a German artist who lived from 1665 to 1749, portrays Heinrich Erndl. The portrait is dated to between 1675 and 1748 and depicts Erndl within an oval frame, surrounded by a drapery of fabric, and sitting atop a plinth. Below the portrait is a detailed inscription, including his title and coat of arms. Bodenehr's style is a testament to the meticulous and detailed approach of 17th century printmaking, and the use of shadows and light creates a sense of depth and realism, showcasing the prominent features of his sitter. This work is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
