EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the distinguished face of Heinrich Freiherr von Ferstel (1815-1883), a renowned Austrian architect of the 19th century. The image, created by the skilled hands of Viennese sculptor Viktor Oskar Tilgner in 1877, showcases the architect in a close-up view, with his bearded face and expressive eyes gazing directly at the viewer. The bust, crafted in terracotta, highlights the intricate details of Ferstel's facial features, from the well-groomed moustache to the wrinkles around his eyes, which speak of a life filled with creativity and hard work. Heinrich Freiherr von Ferstel was a prominent figure in Austrian history, known for his contributions to the country's architectural landscape. His most notable works include the Vienna Stock Exchange and the Museum of Applied Arts. This portrait, now housed in the Austrian Gallery Belvedere, is a testament to the artistic and historical significance of both the subject and the artist. Viktor Oskar Tilgner (1842-1918) was a celebrated sculptor of his time, known for his realistic and highly detailed works. The bust of Ferstel showcases Tilgner's mastery of ceramics, with the terracotta material bringing out the subtle textures and nuances of the architect's face. The studio shot setting further emphasizes the intimate and personal nature of the portrait, inviting the viewer to connect with the historical figure and appreciate the artistry of both the subject and the artist.
