About this work

Overview

This oil painting, created by Angelica Kauffmann in 1793, is a portrait tentatively identified as Karl Leberecht. It is part of the State Hermitage Museum's collection.

Subject & Meaning

The portrait depicts a man dressed in a red coat with a fur collar and white cravat, holding a small object in his left hand. His serious expression and the way he is posed suggest a sense of dignity and contemplation.

Technique & Style

The artist's use of chiaroscuro, a strong contrast between light and dark, draws attention to the subject's face and hands. The soft, three-dimensional effect achieved through the rendering of light on skin and fabric adds depth to the portrait.
