Author: TURNBULL,
Title: Reverend John Arndt
Description: Bust-length portrait of Johann Arndt (or Arnd; 1555-1621). Arndt was a German Lutheran theologian who wrote several books of devotional Christianity. Although reflective of the period of Lutheran Orthodoxy, he is seen as a forerunner of Pietism, a movement within Lutheranism that gained strength in the late 17th century (source: Wikipedia). Stipple engraving on chine-collé, sheet size 195 x 118 mm., chine size 192 x 114 mm. Engraved by Turnbull and published by William Booth (London) in: Carpenter, William. Critica Biblica: or Depository of Sacred Literature (...). Londen: William Booth, 1827, vol. 2. Little is known about the engraver Turnbull, except he was active around 1810. In very good condition, but cropped close to the chine. Minimal loss in the top right corner, a small crease in the lower right corner.
