專家說明

The sitter was the fifth but third surviving son of Frederick Christian, Elector of Saxony, and Maria Antonia of Bavaria. He succeeded his brother Frederick Augustus I as Elector in 1827, at the age of 71. In 1782, he married Princess Caroline of Savoy, but she died after one year of marriage. In 1787, he married Archduchess Maria Theresia of Austria. None of their four children survived infancy. He was succeeded by his nephew, Frederick Augustus II.
The present miniature is after a large-scale oil on canvas portrait by Carl Christian Vogel von Vogelstein, painted in 1827, and now in the Galerie Neue Meister, Dresden, Gal.-Nr. 3340. Another very similar signed miniature by Fiorino is in the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister, Dresden, Gal.-Nr. M 199 A.
