Painting Description
"Count de Daun, General of Armies of the Holy Roman Empire" is an engraving featured in the collection "Receuil des Estampes representant les Rangs et les Dignites suivant le Costume de toutes les Nations existantes," which translates to "Collection of Prints Representing the Ranks and Dignities According to the Costume of All Existing Nations." This work, created by the French engraver Pierre Duflos the Elder (c. 1700–1773), is part of an extensive series that illustrates various military and civil uniforms and costumes from around the world, reflecting the 18th-century European interest in ethnography and the categorization of social hierarchies.
The engraving of Count de Daun is a representation of Leopold Joseph Maria, Count von Daun (1705–1766), who was an Austrian field marshal in the service of the Habsburg Monarchy during the War of the Austrian Succession and the Seven Years' War. He is perhaps best known for his victory over Frederick the Great at the Battle of Kolin in 1757. The image in Duflos' collection captures the count in his military regalia, reflecting his status and the fashions of the military elite of the Holy Roman Empire during the 18th century.
Pierre Duflos' work is significant as it provides a visual record of the diverse range of uniforms and costumes worn by different ranks and dignitaries across nations during the period. The engravings are valued not only for their artistic merit but also for their historical and cultural significance, offering insights into the self-representation and perception of various social strata in the pre-modern world.
The "Receuil des Estampes" is an important historical source for scholars studying the history of costume, military history, and the iconography of social status. It remains a testament to the detailed craftsmanship of engravers like Duflos and the European Enlightenment's drive to document and categorize the world's peoples and their customs.
