Portrait of Count Palatine Ottheinrich
by PENCZ, Georg, Oil on panel, 94 x 73 cm
Count Palatine Ottheinrich (1502-1559), Regent of the principality of Pfalz-Neuburg, later Elector in Heidelberg, was one of the most prominent German collectors of books. His name is linked to the richly illustrated, unusually large manuscript of a New Testament in German translation.
