About the piece
This 17th-century portrait by David Klöcker Ehrenstrahl captures Count Johan Jacob Hastfehr with the gravitas typical of the Baroque court style. The artist's skill is evident in the luminous treatment of the metal breastplate and the soft, intricate texture of the sitter's elaborate wig against a dark, atmospheric background.
