Chlodwig Fürst zu Hohenlohe-Schillingsfürst c. 1896

Franz von Lenbach was a celebrated German portrait painter who specialized in capturing the likeness of prominent figures. This portrait, *Chlodwig Fürst zu Hohenlohe-Schillingsfürst*, is a prime example of his skill. The subject is rendered in a realistic style, with careful attention to detail in the facial features and the texture of the fur collar. The painting's soft, muted tones contribute to a sense of intimacy and realism. Lenbach’s work often reflected the prevailing aesthetics of the late 19th century, emphasizing naturalism and psychological depth.
