Portret van Ernst Casimir, graaf van Nassau-Dietz 1850 - 1930

This portrait of Ernst Casimir, Count of Nassau-Dietz, is an anonymous work from the Rijksmuseum, dating from between 1850 and 1930. The portrait depicts the count standing in a three-quarter length pose, wearing a 17th-century costume with a white collar and a belt over his doublet, emphasizing his status as a member of the nobility. The count stands with a cane in one hand, and his other rests on a pillar or railing. This portrait is likely a copy of an earlier painting, possibly from the 17th century, which would have been commissioned by the subject or a member of his family. The anonymous artist recreated the composition and style of the original in this portrait.
