This print by Friedrich Wilhelm Bollinger, created in 1817, depicts Georg Christian Knapp, a prominent figure in German history. Knapp is portrayed in a formal setting, wearing a dark robe and a white clerical collar, suggesting his position as a theologian. He holds a book in his left hand and gestures with his right, perhaps indicating a moment of discourse or thought. The image is rendered in a realistic style with fine detail, capturing the likeness of Knapp and providing insight into the aesthetic of the early 19th century. This print is currently housed at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
