Overview
The painting 'Kurfürst Maximilian I. von Bayern und Henriette Adelaide' is an oval work by Antonio Triva, created in 1662. It is part of the Alte Pinakothek's collection.
Technique & Style

Subject & Meaning
The scene depicts several figures, with one central figure appearing to be seated or reclining. The background contains standing and kneeling figures, though details are obscured by the dark and worn areas of the painting.
