Heinrich(?) vom Rhein zum Mohren (1477–1536) 1527 - 1529

This oil painting by Conrad Faber von Creuznach depicts Heinrich(?) vom Rhein zum Mohren, a prominent figure in 16th-century Germany. The portrait, created between 1527 and 1529, showcases the sitter's status and wealth through detailed rendering of his clothing, including a fur-lined cloak and a gold-trimmed hat. The background features a stylized landscape with a distant cityscape, indicative of the artist's Northern Renaissance style, often characterized by meticulous detail and an emphasis on realism. The painting, now housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, offers a fascinating glimpse into the life and fashion of a prominent individual during this period.
