About the Item

Portrait of Johann Theodor of Bavaria (1703-1763) by Joseph Vivien Johann Theodor of Bavaria (* September 3, 1703 in Munich; † January 27, 1763 in Liège) was a cardinal and bishop of Regensburg (from 1719) and Freising (from 1727), and prince-bishop of Liège from 1744. As cardinal he was cardinal protopriest from 1761. This portrait is by Joseph Vivien, the famous Rococo Portrait painter. The attribution is confirmed by Prof. Börsch-Supan in written communication. Following Prof. Börsch-Supan, there are two other known versions of this portrait, one in the Residenz, Munich and the other in the castle of Berchtesgarden. These other versions vary in composition and show differences to this work. Portrait paintings of Johann Theodor of Bavaria by Joseph Vivien (House of Wittelsbach)
