This engraved portrait of Karl Georg Heinrich, Graf von Hoym was created by Gottfried August Thilo in 1799. It is a small, intimate portrait measuring just 111 mm in height and 74 mm in width. The subject is depicted in profile, wearing a formal, aristocratic attire, with a powdered wig, emphasizing his status. The detailed rendering of the face and clothing, along with the inscription below, provides a glimpse into the life of a prominent figure from the late 18th century. This artwork is a fine example of Neoclassical engraving.
