About the piece
This 1832 oil study by Friedrich von Amerling captures Count Majlath and his family with remarkable sensitivity. Known for his mastery of the Biedermeier portrait style, Amerling uses a warm, ochre palette to unify the subjects, focusing on their delicate features and contemplative expressions against a painterly, textured background.
