This delicate pencil drawing by Philipp Winterwerb, a 19th-century German artist, portrays Kardinal Otto, the Bishop of Augsburg. The figure stands in profile, clad in elaborate robes, holding a book and a staff with a crosier. The detail of the bishop's attire and accessories, rendered with careful precision, offers a glimpse into the rich traditions of the Catholic Church in the 15th century. While the exact date of the work is unknown, its delicate lines and focus on historical detail align with Winterwerb's artistic style and his fascination with the past.
