Elector Frederick Christian of Saxony (1722-1763) is a 1755 oil by Pietro Rotari, a Rococo painting work, held at Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister.
This painting depicts a man dressed in a red robe with white lace cuffs, holding a staff in his right hand. He wears a blue sash over his robe, and his hair is styled in an updo. The background is a muted color, with some dark shapes that could be trees or foliage. The man's attire and the staff he holds suggest that he may be a person of importance or authority. The painting's style and the use of oil paint give it a sense of depth and richness.
