Old drawings, part II



I bought this portrait of a soldier from Salzburg last year. The drawing dates back to year 1792. I am not sure is the soldier in the picture called Anton Esterházy or is that the artist. Esterházy name refers to a Hungarian noble family that was a major landowner magnate in Hungary from 17th century onwards. Anyway, I love the detailing of the picture and especially those rosy cheeks.
