EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the remarkable portrait of John III, also known as "the Pitiless". Duke of Bavaria-Straubing. Created by an artist from the Flemish School in the 16th century, this red chalk drawing on paper captures the essence of a powerful and enigmatic figure. John III, a member of the House of Wittelsbach, was not only a duke but also held titles such as prince-bishop of Liege and Count of Holland and Hainaut. His reputation for being ruthless earned him the nickname "the Pitiless". This stunning portrait reveals his commanding presence through his intense gaze and intricate headdress. Preserved in Bibliotheque Municipale in Arras, France, this artwork is believed to be created by Jacques Le Boucq or another talented artist from Belgium or Flanders. The level of detail showcased in this sketch suggests it was part of a study or preliminary work for a larger project. As we admire this historical masterpiece captured by Fine Art Finder's lens, we are transported back in time to witness the strength and complexity that defined John III's character. This print allows us to appreciate both the artistic skill involved in its creation and the historical significance it holds within European nobility during that era.
