This engraving by Johann Pfann is a portrait of Johann Will, a prominent figure from Nuremberg. Created between 1648 and 1663, the image captures Will in a formal pose, his face framed by a thick beard and his hand resting on a book. The inscription around Will’s head provides details about his life, while the inscription below adds a poetic touch to the piece. The engraving is a fine example of portraiture from the Baroque period, notable for its attention to detail and realistic depiction.
