Title
"Kurfürst Karl Theodor von Bayern (1724-99) und Gemahlin Elisabeth Auguste von Pfalz-Sulzbach 1721-94 – ein Paar Pendant-Portraits aus kgl. bayerischem Besitz"
Description
English: Portrait of Maximilian III Joseph, Elector of Bavaria (1727-1777), misidentified with Charles Theodore, Elector of Bavaria (1724-1799).
  • Identification based on the comparison with some portraits of Elector Maximilian III Joseph (see images below) and the lack of physical resemblance of the sitter of this portrait to verified representations of Elector Charles Theodore.
Deutsch: "Jeweils Öl auf Leinwand und Keilrahmen sowie unsigniert. Der Kurfürst in Harnisch und mit Hermelin, am Hals der Orden vom Goldenen Vlies, an der Brust der Hausritterorden vom Heiligen Hubertus, in der Rechten sein Szepter, davor der Kurhut. Die Kurfürstin in hellblauem, goldbesticktem Kleid mit Diadem in den Haaren, umgehängt die Schärpe mit Kleinod des russischen St. Katharinen-Ordens, die linke Hand auf den Kurhut gelegt, daneben eine weitere Krone. Bildmaße je 74 x 46 cm. In identischen schwarzen Holzrahmen, Maße je 85,5 x 58,5 cm. Jugendlich idealisierte Darstellungen des Kurfürstenpaares, wohl aus dem 19. Jhdt. Das Tragen des ihm 1778 verliehenen Ordens vom Goldenen Vlies weist jedoch darauf hin, dass Karl Theodor bereits als Kurfürst von Bayern (ab 1777) dargestellt ist."
