Portrait of Count Heinrich

Philip de László’s Portrait of Count Heinrich is a masterful representation of aristocratic dignity and poise. The painting depicts Count Heinrich in full-length, standing confidently with his faithful hunting dog by his side. His upright posture, formal black coat, and rust-toned trousers convey both his stature and his passion for the outdoors.

László’s attention to detail is evident in the texture of the Count's tailored attire, the glimmer of the gloves in his hand, and the thoughtful expression on his face. The subtle interplay of light and shadow highlights the Count’s refined features and the glossy coat of the dog, creating a sense of vitality and presence.

The neutral, earthy background enhances the warmth of the composition, drawing the viewer’s attention to the Count and his companion.
