Johann Säger
Johann Säger is a Baroque artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Brukenthal National Museum.
Johann Säger painted formal portraits of nobles and rulers. In 1717 he recorded Jan Sobieski, King of Poland, in oils—fancy coat, sash, and all. The work sits in the inventory as “Regele Sobiesky,” a straight-up courtly portrait from the early 1700s. If you like stiff collars and royal posture, tap “Jan Sobieski, regele Poloniei” to see the king in full regalia.
