Portret van Magdalena Sibylla Schacher 1687 - 1743

This etching, created by Johann Georg Mentzel between 1687 and 1743, depicts a portrait of Magdalena Sybilla Wolfsohn. The image is composed of a central portrait of Magdalena in an oval frame, flanked by figures representing her family crests. The figures are seated on a platform with a coat of arms at the bottom, illustrating the family lineage and history. Mentzel’s detailed work in this etching showcases his mastery of the engraving technique, capturing the likeness of Magdalena and the intricate details of the family crests and the platform, typical of the Baroque era.
