About the piece
Painted in 1789 by Johann Christoph Rincklake, this dignified portrait depicts Landrat Karl von Zinnow. Seated at his writing desk with a letter in hand and his cloak draped nearby, the subject is rendered with the technical refinement and character-driven detail characteristic of elite late 18th-century European portraiture.
