This self-portrait etching by Johann Hainzelmann, a German engraver, is a fine example of portraiture from the late 17th century. Dated between 1651 and 1693, the piece features the artist in a detailed, three-quarter view, captured in an oval frame. The subject's intricate, powdered wig, detailed facial features, and the delicate rendering of his lace collar reveal Hainzelmann's masterful technique and ability to capture a likeness. The inscription at the bottom notes this is a self-portrait, "Portrait de Jean Hainzelman graveur fait par lui même" (Portrait of Jean Hainzelmann, engraver, made by himself). This small but detailed work, measuring 159mm by 129mm, demonstrates the artist's skill and attention to detail in etching, a medium he mastered throughout his career.
