This etching by Moritz Bodenehr, dating back to the early 18th century, is a portrait of Johann Sigismund Küffner. The artwork, housed at the Rijksmuseum, showcases Küffner in an oval frame adorned with drapery, a common practice in portraiture during the Baroque period. The inscription at the bottom of the print records the date of Küffner's death in 1710. The intricate details and the inscription create a solemn and commemorative tone, typical of portrait etchings of the time.
