Biography:
Friedrich Johann Justin Bertuch (1747-1822)
A successful entrepreneur and a man of the eighteenth century ‘Englightenment.’ Orphaned at 15 he lived with his uncle and pursued an education in theology and law. He eventually became a publisher and the largest employer in his home town of Weimar. This image is from the first pictorial encylopedia for children which was a landmark in educational publishing.
