Portræt af læge Johan von Berger 1781

This engraving by J.F. Clemens, created in 1781, is a portrait of the Danish physician Johan von Berger. The work is a fine example of the portraiture style popular in the late 18th century. The sitter is depicted in a formal pose, his gaze directed towards the viewer, and his attire, a suit and powdered wig, suggests his status and profession. The detailed engraving, which captures the texture of clothing and the subtle lines of the sitter's face, reflects Clemens' skill in this art form. The work is currently part of the collection of the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Denmark.
