Felicitas von Eckh (-Freyberg)

About this work

This is a black-and-white portrait of an older man with a serious expression. He wears a white cap, a high-collared robe, and a chain around his neck. One hand holds a small frame with a coat of arms, while the other rests on a table. The background shows a distant town and a window with curtains. The coat of arms suggests he was someone important, possibly a nobleman or official. The lines are sharp and detailed, typical of the time’s printing techniques. Next, look up technique: etching to see how artists like this made prints.
