About the piece
This 1868 oil portrait by Gyula Benczúr depicts Albert Ujházy in a dignified pose, wearing a sumptuous dark garment adorned with fur and golden chains. The artist masterfully captures the play of light on different textures—from the softness of the beard and fur to the metallic sheen of the jewelry—against a subtle, floral-patterned background that adds depth to the composition.
