This etching by Martin Bernigeroth, created in 1716, is a portrait of Ferdinand Ernst von Mollaert. The work depicts Mollaert in an oval frame, surrounded by a curtain and a draped pedestal. The inscription below the portrait identifies Mollaert as a count and imperial councilor. Bernigeroth was a German artist known for his engravings, and this piece is a fine example of his skill in capturing detail and form. The work is currently held in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
