Johann Rudolf Schellenberg was a multifaceted artist who worked as a painter, copper engraver, illustrator, scientific draughtsman and poet. He is particularly recognised for his contributions to Johann Caspar Lavater’s “Fragments physiognomiques”, as well as for publications related to entomology. The son and pupil of Johann Ulrich Schellenberg, his œuvre reflects a diversity of interests and an interdisciplinary approach, although certain aspects of his career remain uncertain.
