EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait, titled "Pastor F. C. Luedke," was created by the renowned German artist Daniel Nikolaus Chodowiecki in 1780. The image was originally published as part of the title page for a book in the Allgemeine Deutsche Bibliothek (Common German Library) series. Born in Germany in 1726, Chodowiecki was a prolific artist known for his etchings, engravings, and illustrations. His works often featured intricate decorative elements and a high level of detail. In this portrait, Pastor Friedrich Germanus Luedke is depicted in a circular, black and white etching, with a simple nameplate inscribed at the bottom. The pastor is shown in head and shoulders format, wearing a collared shirt and a ribbon adorned with a cross. His profile is turned slightly to the side, giving the viewer a glimpse of his thoughtful expression. The portrait is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of the 18th century, both in Europe and in America, where the book was likely distributed. The image has been preserved and is now part of the extensive collection at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), where it continues to inspire and educate visitors about the history of art and the people of the past. The portrait's circular shape and decorative border add to its visual appeal and make it a striking addition to any art center or gallery display. With its historical significance and artistic merit, this portrait by Daniel Nikolaus Chodowiecki remains a valuable and intriguing piece of art and literature from the 18th century.
