Portret van Christoph Georg Ludwig Meister 1797

This engraving, "Portret van Christoph Georg Ludwig Meister", was created in 1797 by Gerhard Ludwig Lahde. The artwork depicts a portrait of Christoph Georg Ludwig Meister, a theologian, in profile. It features a simple black and white style, common in engravings of the period. Meister's face is the focal point, detailed with subtle shading, while the background is left relatively plain, drawing attention to the subject. The inclusion of text on the engraving further identifies the subject, indicating it was likely commissioned to commemorate Meister or his work.
