Portret van de arts Georg Laub op 38-jarige leeftijd 1591

This engraving by Dominicus Custos, created in 1591, portrays Georg Laub, a physician from Augsburg, at the age of 38. The detailed depiction of Laub's clothing, including his elaborate ruff and ornate chain, reflects the fashion of the late sixteenth century and highlights his status. This small-scale work, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies Custos' skill in creating a realistic and expressive portrait, a testament to his successful career as a portrait artist during this period.
