This etching by Elias Hainzelmann, created in 1677, depicts Marcus Huber, a prominent figure in Augsburg. The portrait is presented within an oval frame adorned with an inscription in Latin, highlighting Huber’s roles as a senator and council member, as well as his involvement in the upkeep of the city's temples. The inscription below the oval is a tribute to Huber, praising his public and private contributions. The etching, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the life of a prominent citizen of Augsburg during the 17th century.
