Portret van Heinrich Eberhard Gottlob Paulus 1838

This lithograph by Antoine Maurin, a French artist who lived from 1793-1860, depicts Heinrich Eberhard Gottlob Paulus, a German theologian. Maurin's portrait of Paulus was created in 1838, and is part of the Rijksmuseum collection. The portrait showcases Paulus's facial features, particularly his deep-set eyes and prominent nose, captured in a detailed yet delicate style. The inscription beneath the portrait reads "Dr. H. E. G. Paulus, natus 1. Sept. 1761, delineatus a. 1838. La Raison, faite par avoir raison", further contextualizing the artwork.
