Bildnis: Großherzog Friedrich II. von Baden
From the collection of The Badisches Landesmuseum
This is a portrait of a man in a dark military uniform with bright red trim. His collar has gold braid, and his chest is covered in medals and ribbons. The background is a plain, dark green, keeping all focus on him. Notice how the artist used soft, blended strokes for the face but kept the uniform details sharp. This makes the medals stand out even more. Look up Otto Hör next to see how he handled other portraits.
