Franz von Lenbach’s 1896 portrait of Prince Otto von Bismarck, a prominent figure in German history, exemplifies the artist’s renowned realist style. Known for his detailed renderings of prominent figures, Lenbach captures Bismarck’s stern countenance and the stoic, yet dignified, aura that surrounded the statesman. This painting, now housed at the Art Institute of Chicago, is a testament to Lenbach’s ability to convey the essence of his subjects and to capture the spirit of an era.
