About the piece

Painted in 1807 by Friedrich Bury, this formal portrait depicts Wilhelm Friedrich Ernst von Dalwigk zu Schauenburg in a dark military uniform. The composition is defined by the vibrant red of his high collar and the intricate silver braiding on his shoulder, contrasted against a somber, atmospheric background of castle towers and a distant blue mountain.
