Jacob Mangot's 1798 engraving, "Portret van Friedrich Wilhelm Wedag", depicts a portrait of Friedrich Wilhelm Wedag within an oval frame. This small-scale print (214 mm x 160 mm) is a fine example of 18th-century portraiture and is a testament to Mangot's skill as an engraver. The detailed lines and subtle shading of the print capture the sitter's likeness with precision. This engraving would have been a popular choice for collectors interested in historical figures and fine art prints.
