"Portrait of Dr. Konrad Fiedler (1879)" is a notable painting by the German artist Hans von Marees (1837–1887), who was a significant figure in the German art world of the late 19th century. The portrait depicts Dr. Konrad Fiedler (1841–1895), a prominent art theorist and critic of the time, known for his influential thoughts on the psychological and philosophical underpinnings of visual art. Fiedler's theories were instrumental in shaping von Marees's artistic approach, which sought to transcend the mere representation of reality in favor of capturing a deeper, more spiritual essence.

The painting is executed in the Symbolist style, which von Marees helped pioneer in Germany. Symbolism was characterized by its focus on emotion, truth, and the use of metaphorical imagery rather than direct representation. In this portrait, von Marees employs a subdued color palette and a contemplative composition to reflect Fiedler's intellectual character and the profound impact of his ideas on the arts.

Measuring 56 x 47 cm, the artwork is a testament to the close relationship between the artist and the sitter, with von Marees capturing not just Fiedler's likeness but also the essence of his intellectual spirit. The portrait eschews the grandiosity often found in depictions of figures of such cultural significance, opting instead for an intimate and introspective portrayal that invites viewers to consider the subject's inner life and contributions to art theory.

"Portrait of Dr. Konrad Fiedler" is held in high regard for its art-historical significance, as it represents a confluence of two influential minds in the field of art—the artist and the theorist. The work is an important piece in understanding the development of Symbolism in Germany and the broader European context, as well as the intellectual exchanges that shaped the art movements of the period. The painting is part of the collection of the Neue Pinakothek in Munich, Germany, where it continues to be studied and appreciated by scholars and the public alike.
