Maximilian I, Son of Emperor Frederick III

William Rogers

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a man standing, facing slightly to the right with his head turned to the left. He has a long, pointed nose, a medium length beard, wears a hat with draped fabric, and his hair flows down to his shoulders. He is dressed in elaborate robes with intricate patterns, adorned with a lined collar and edges, and wears a belt around his waist. The man is holding his left hand on his hip while his right hand points downward. A sword with an ornate handle lies near his feet. The background includes an arched architectural structure with detailed carvings, rolling hills, and a town or city in the distance under a sky with clouds.
