Follower of Desmarées - Maximilian III Joseph, Elector of Bavaria, Georg Desmarées, circa 1760

So-called portrait of maximilian iii joseph, elector of bavaria (1727-1777), but is probably a depiction of his cousin albert casimir, duke of teschen (1738-1822). Identification proposed by user ecummenic (talk) based on the comparison with some portraits of albert of saxony (see images below) and the lack of physical resemblance of the sitter of this portrait to verified representations of maximilian iii joseph. Date: circa 1760. Dimensions: circa height: 82 cm (32.2 in); width: 65.5 cm (25.7 in). Medium: oil on canvas. Collection: Unidentified location.
