"Bildnis Lydia Welti-Escher" is a notable portrait by the Swiss artist Karl Stauffer-Bern, created in the late 19th century. The subject of the painting, Lydia Welti-Escher (1858–1891), was a prominent figure in Swiss society and the daughter of Alfred Escher, a key figure in the development of Switzerland's railways and financial sector. She was also the wife of Friedrich Emil Welti, the son of a Swiss Federal Councillor.

Karl Stauffer-Bern (1857–1891), born Carl Stauffer, was a Swiss painter, etcher, and sculptor associated with the Realist movement. His work often reflected a deep psychological insight into his subjects, and "Bildnis Lydia Welti-Escher" is no exception. The portrait is celebrated for its intimate and sensitive portrayal of Lydia, capturing both her physical likeness and the essence of her personality.

The painting is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical context. Lydia Welti-Escher's tragic life story, marked by personal loss and a scandalous affair with Stauffer-Bern, which led to a highly publicized court case, adds a layer of poignancy to the portrait. The relationship between the artist and his muse, as well as the subsequent events, had a profound impact on Stauffer-Bern's career and personal life.

"Bildnis Lydia Welti-Escher" is considered one of Stauffer-Bern's masterpieces and is an important work in the canon of Swiss portraiture. The painting is often analyzed within the framework of the artist's tumultuous biography and the social dynamics of the time. It remains a subject of interest for art historians and enthusiasts of Swiss art, offering insight into the cultural and personal narratives of the late 19th century.
