Portret van Johann Philipp Preiss 1669 - 1720

This etching by Johann Alexander Böner, dated 1669-1720, is a portrait of Johann Philipp Preiss. The artwork features a bust-length portrait of Preiss within an octagonal frame. The figure is depicted with a serious expression and is wearing a dark coat with a white collar. The artist has used a combination of stippling and hatching to create tonal variation, particularly in the figure's clothing and facial features. This piece is a significant example of Baroque portraiture in Germany, as it reflects the period's emphasis on detail and realism. The print is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
