This 18th-century portrait engraving by Christian Gottlieb Geyser depicts Johann Adam Hiller, a renowned German composer and conductor. The print features a bust-length portrait of Hiller in profile, framed within an oval. Hiller's powdered wig and formal attire reflect the fashionable styles of the period. The engraving, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to the artistic skill of Geyser and provides a glimpse into the life of an important musical figure.
