EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the esteemed "Portrait of Moses Mendelssohn" created by Friedrich Wilhelm Bollinger in 1818. The portrait, now part of a private collection, immortalizes the renowned philosopher and Jewish Enlightenment thinker, Moses Mendelssohn (1729-1786). Bollinger's etching skillfully captures the essence of Mendelssohn's intellectual prowess and contemplative nature. Set against a simple background, Mendelssohn gazes directly at the viewer with an expression that exudes wisdom and introspection. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every line and contour, highlighting his mastery of graphic arts. As a prominent figure during the Age of Enlightenment in Germany, Moses Mendelssohn played a pivotal role in advocating for religious tolerance and promoting rational thinking. Known as one of the key figures behind Haskalah (Jewish Enlightenment), he sought to bridge gaps between different faiths while emphasizing education as a means for social progress. This neoclassical masterpiece not only pays homage to Mendelssohn but also serves as a testament to Bollinger's artistic talent. Through this print, viewers are transported back in time to witness the intellectual brilliance embodied by this influential philosopher. While its commercial use may be restricted due to its status as part of a private collection, this remarkable artwork continues to inspire admiration for both Moses Mendelssohn himself and Friedrich Wilhelm Bollinger's contribution to fine art images from Germany during this period
