About the piece
Painted around 1650 by Frans Luycx, this formal portrait depicts Maximilian Heinrich, Elector and Archbishop of Cologne. The subject is presented with quiet gravity, his dark clerical robes contrasted by a crisp white collar and a prominent gold cross, showcasing the artist's skill in capturing both the sitter's character and the tactile quality of the velvet and lace.
