This engraved portrait, created by Johannes (II) Meyer between 1665 and 1712, depicts Johann von Muralt, a Swiss physician and surgeon. The work is a classic example of portraiture in the Baroque era, with its emphasis on detail and realism. The subject is presented in an oval frame, surrounded by an inscription detailing his titles and achievements. The inscription and the overall composition of the portrait reflect the artist's skill in capturing not only the physical likeness of the sitter but also his status and profession.
