Portret van Albertus Rusius c. 1850

This portrait of Albertus Rusius was created around 1850 by Dutch artist Leendert (I) Springer. The artwork depicts Rusius in a close-up view, showcasing his face and upper torso against a plain background. Rusius's long, curly hair and formal attire suggest a figure of importance. The detailed brushstrokes and realistic rendering of Rusius's features are characteristic of Springer's work, a prominent painter of portraits and historical scenes. This small-scale, yet intricately crafted portrait provides a glimpse into the life and appearance of a notable individual from the 19th century.
