This lithograph, created by Danish artist Andreas Flinch (1813-1872) depicts Johan Christian Ryge. The portrait is set within a decorative frame featuring intricate floral and figural motifs. The work is characteristic of Flinch's style, known for its attention to detail and delicate linework. The print, likely created for public consumption, showcases the artist's talent for capturing likeness and adding a sense of personality to his subjects. The work is now housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, a prominent art institution in Copenhagen.
