• DESCRIPTION: The portrait of Erasmus Gutthater shows the characteristic technique seen across works attributed to Georg Thomas Gutthater: a notably light, almost weightless handling of the engraved line. The impressions sit gently on the paper, giving the surface a soft, open quality rather than a dense, ink-heavy finish. The lines themselves are fine and delicately spaced, creating an effect that at moments resembles the soft bite of an etching, with subtle transitions and minimal pressure visible across the plate. This airy execution gives the sitter a calm, understated presence and defines the visual identity of Gutthater’s work—an immediately recognizable combination of precise line, light inking, and a restrained, almost atmospheric touch that sets his prints apart by style alone.
