Portret van Philipp Helfrich Krebs 1674 - 1714

This engraving by Elias Nessenthaler, created between 1674 and 1714, is a portrait of Philipp Helfrich Krebs. The etching showcases Krebs in a formal pose with a powdered wig and ornate clothing, typical of Baroque portraiture. The use of an oval frame emphasizes the individual as a significant figure, a common practice in portraiture of the era. Nessenthaler's detail in rendering the subject's features and clothing reflects the precision of the Baroque period. This work is a testament to the artist's skill and the artistry of the era.
