This woodcut portrait of Andreas Osiander, a German theologian, was created by Balthasar Jenichen in 1565. The image shows Osiander in a three-quarter profile, with a serious expression. The artist utilizes a detailed style, capturing the subject's facial features and clothing with precision. Osiander's folded hands, visible in the foreground, and the text surrounding him suggest the woodcut was created for a devotional publication. The artwork can be found at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst.
