The captivating portrait of Rudolf von Colloredo, painted around 1645 by Luyckx or Leux, Frans, is a remarkable depiction of an influential figure during the tumultuous period of the Thirty Years War. This oil on canvas print measures an impressive 231x142 cm and can be found in Skokloster Castle, Sweden. Rudolf Hieronymus Eusebius von Colloredo-Waldsee (1585-1657) takes center stage in this composition as he stands proudly in his full military regalia. As commander-in-chief of the defense of Prague when the Swedish army attacked in 1648, he played a crucial role during this historic battle. The artist skillfully captures every intricate detail from the aristocrat's richly embroidered curtain to his majestic drapery that cascades elegantly down his side. The baroque style adds a touch of grandeur to this field marshal's portrait, emphasizing his noble status and importance within Bohemia.
