Colonelul Salamon is a work by Ferdinand Heilmann, held at Brukenthal National Museum.
This is a portrait of a man in a military uniform. He’s wearing a green jacket with gold buttons and a fancy collar, plus a medal on his chest. His mustache is thick, and he’s looking straight ahead with a serious expression. The artist signed the painting in the corner, but the date isn’t clear. The medal suggests he might have been in the military, but we don’t know more about him. Next, look up Heilmann, Ferdinand to see what else this artist painted.
