This portrait, painted in 1853 by Austrian artist Friedrich von Amerling, depicts Johann Matthias Ranftl, a painter. The painting showcases Amerling's mastery of realism, capturing Ranftl's likeness with remarkable detail. The subject is rendered in a three-quarter profile, gazing slightly away from the viewer. Ranftl's attire, including a dark coat and a wide-brimmed hat, reflects the fashion of the mid-19th century. The composition is simple, with a muted background that emphasizes the subject's presence.
