Description : Ritratto di monarca della famiglia Asburgica

Oil painting on canvas. It is certainly a king due to the presence of the crown and scepter at the bottom right; the man is clad in armor and rests his left hand on the helmet, to underline his prestige as a leader. Portrait in old age, as evidenced by the hoary hair, due to the physiognomic traits, the so-called "Habsburg chin" (or Habsburg chin, Habsburg lip, Habsburg lip), a particular hereditary malformation pathology of genetic origin, documented over the centuries , present in many members of the House of Habsburg. The somatic traits would lead back to Leopold I of Habsburg (1640 -1705), Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, who led numerous war campaigns. The painting, restored and relined, has a slight tear on the red surface. It is presented in a frame from the early 1900s.
