About the piece
Painted around 1770 by Anton Graff, this portrait captures Johann Nepomuk von Schaffgotsch with masterful textural detail. The artist highlights the luminous quality of the sitter's blue velvet cap and the soft, intricate fur trim of his robe, all set within a traditional painted oval composition typical of the era's sophisticated portraiture.
