Portret van Elias Zeidler op 58-jarige leeftijd 1682

This engraved portrait of Elias Zeidler was created in 1682 by the German artist Leonhard Heckenauer. Zeidler, an important figure in the Lutheran Church, is depicted at the age of 58, holding a book and gesturing with his right hand. The image's composition and details, including the crucifix, table, and drapery, all contribute to the somber and pious atmosphere, highlighting Zeidler's status as a religious leader. The artwork is currently located in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
