About the piece
Painted in 1905 by Elemír Halász-Hradil, this formal portrait depicts Eugen Halmi in a detailed Austro-Hungarian military uniform. The vibrant blue of the jacket, accented by gold braiding and a single medal, creates a commanding yet refined presence typical of Central European academic portraiture from the early 20th century.
