EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we witness the historic moment when Gundaker Count Althann presents Emperor Charles VI with the Inventory of the Imperial Picture Collection in the Stallburg. Painted by Johann Gottfried Auerbach in 1728, this grand artwork measures an impressive 309x284 cm and is housed at the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna, Austria. The painting showcases remarkable attention to detail as it depicts both the heads of Emperor Charles VI and Count Althann. The artist, Francesco Solimena, also known as l'Abbate Ciccio, skillfully captures their expressions and portrays them with great dignity. This piece belongs to the Baroque period and exemplifies its opulence through various elements such as cherubs or putti adorning the scene. Additionally, a suit of armor adds a touch of regality while Fama (the personification of fame) hovers above them. The significance of this event lies not only in its artistic representation but also in its historical context. It symbolizes a pivotal moment when power was transferred from one leader to another within Germany's imperial court during the early 18th century. As viewers gaze upon this magnificent print, they are transported back in time to witness an important exchange between two influential figures. This image serves as a testament to Europe's rich cultural heritage and highlights Austria's role as a center for art and diplomacy during that era.
