About the piece
This elegant pastel portrait from approximately 1800 depicts Baron Joseph Mednyánszky in his youth. The anonymous Viennese artist employs the soft, luminous qualities of the pastel medium to capture the sitter’s gentle expression and the tactile richness of his blue hussar-style jacket, detailed with intricate gold braiding and a plush fur collar.
