This striking head and shoulders portrait captures the intense gaze and unyielding determination of Eduard Freiherr von Boehm-Ermolli, Austro-Hungarian cavalry general and commander of the Austrian 2nd Army during World War I. Born in 1856, Boehm-Ermolli rose through the ranks of the Austro-Hungarian military, earning a reputation as a skilled and daring cavalry commander. During the war, he led his troops on the Russian front and played a key role in the occupation of the Ukraine in 1918.

The date of this photograph is 1915, a critical year in the war as the Austro-Hungarian and Russian armies clashed in a series of fierce battles. This portrait offers a glimpse into the life and leadership of one of the most prominent military figures of the time, providing a fascinating window into the past.
