This pencil drawing by German artist Eugen Eduard Schäffer, created in the 19th century, is a study for a larger work. It features four circular portraits of prominent figures in profile, including Johann Weyuk, Albrecht Dürer, and Anton Pilgram, all in simple pencil lines. The drawing, which is currently housed in the Städel Museum, demonstrates Schäffer's skill in capturing likeness and his interest in historical figures. The drawing’s simplicity and meticulousness highlight Schäffer’s talent for detail and underscore his role in the study of 16th-century portraiture.
