/internal/media/dispatcher/143750/fullThe Freight Forwarder Paolo Preinitsch (Rosegg 1762 - 1840 Trieste) in the Port of Triesteca 1835[Giuseppe Tominz]Giuseppe TominzOil on canvas on plate In this portrait, highly esteemed and frequently commissioned painter Giuseppe Tominz depicts successful businessman Paolo Preinitsch, who poses contentedly in front of his life’s work. Originally from what is now Rosegg in Carinthia, the entrepreneur became wealthy in Trieste through a shipping company. The horse-drawn carts in the background of the painting allude to his profession - and at the same time recall the transport route between Vienna and Trieste, which is still called Triester Strasse. Tominz’s portraits are characterized by exceptional elegance, bright colors, and naturalism, which stylistically aligns him with Viennese Biedermeier painter Ferdinand Georg Waldmüller.Paintinghttps://sammlungtest.belvedere.at/objects/97874/rdf
