EDITORS COMMENTS
In this portrait, we are introduced to Count Carl Anton von Harrach, a man of remarkable stature and influence in 18th-century Austria. The master falconer and Lord Lieutenant of Austria is depicted with an air of regality and confidence, befitting his esteemed positions. The artist, Martin II Mytens or Meytens from the school of painting, has skillfully captured the count's commanding presence. Dressed in opulent attire adorned with intricate gold embroidery, Count Harrach exudes elegance and refinement. His powdered wig adds an additional touch of grandeur to his appearance. As our gaze meets his piercing eyes, we can almost sense the count's deep connection with nature as a master falconer. This noble pursuit was not only a symbol of status but also showcased his expertise in training these majestic birds for hunting purposes. This exquisite print transports us back in time to an era where aristocracy reigned supreme. It serves as a reminder of the power dynamics that shaped society during that period. Displayed against a neutral background, every detail stands out vividly - from the count's meticulously groomed facial hair to the fine lines etched on his face by age and wisdom. Count Carl Anton von Harrach remains immortalized through this artwork; it offers us a glimpse into both his personal life and societal role as one of Austria's most influential figures.
