"Portret van Georg Meyer" (c. 1690s) is an engraving by Hermann Mosting depicting Georg Meyer, a reverend and senior minister. The portrait shows Meyer in a three-quarter length pose, wearing a black gown with a large white collar and holding a book. The inscription beneath the image provides biographical information and a verse in Latin praising his wisdom and intellect. Mosting's use of fine lines and detailed hatching in this engraving creates a realistic and expressive representation of Meyer.
