Portret van Johann Friedrich von Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt 1767 - 1788

This etching by Johann Esaias Nilson, created between 1767 and 1788, is a portrait of Johann Friedrich von Schwarzburg-Rudolstadt. The artwork features a central oval portrait of the prince, surrounded by elaborate ornamentation, including a coat of arms, figures representing virtues, and a scroll with a Latin inscription. The intricate details and the use of allegorical figures typical of Baroque portraiture, make this artwork a fine example of the style prevalent in the late 18th century.
