EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the regal beauty and power of Empress Maria Theresa, the only female ruler of the Habsburg dominions. Painted by Johann-Gottfried Auerbach in 1749, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures an impressive 153x120 cm. The empress is depicted in a three-quarter length pose, exuding confidence and authority. Maria Theresa's royal status is emphasized by her majestic crown adorned with jewels and her elegant sceptre held firmly in hand. Her rich blue gown, intricately embroidered with gold thread, cascades gracefully around her figure, while delicate lace frills add a touch of femininity to her attire. The artist skillfully captures every detail of Maria Theresa's appearance - from the intricate patterns on her dress to the luxurious ermine fur draped over one shoulder. Her piercing gaze conveys both intelligence and determination as she gazes confidently into the distance. This remarkable portrait serves as a testament to Maria Theresa's reign as Holy Roman Empress and showcases her place in history as the last ruler of the House of Habsburg. It now resides in a private collection but continues to inspire awe for its exquisite artistry and depiction of one of Europe's most influential female leaders.
