Johann Adam Klein (Nuremberg 1792 – 1875 Munich) was a German painter and printmaker. Many of his graphic works display soldiers or figures with various occupations. He also made many etchings of domestic animals.
In very good condition, the image clean and crisp, a faint dampstain in the top margin edge, and a stain from oil or moisture in the lower margin (not nearly affecting image).
