"Portret van Johan Georg I" is an engraving by Frederik (I) Bouttats, created sometime between 1600 and 1676. It depicts a bust-length portrait of Johan Georg I, Duke of Saxony, in an oval frame. The engraving is a fine example of 17th-century portraiture, with a focus on realism and detail. The detail in his beard, clothing, and the crown in the background all contribute to the piece's realistic depiction. The engraving is a valuable historical document that provides insight into the appearance and dress of a prominent figure of the period. The artwork, part of the Rijksmuseum collection, is a relatively small piece measuring 163 mm by 117 mm.
