Abstract

The National Gallery in Ljubljana keeps a portrait of a noblewoman from the second half of the 17th century, once known as a noblewoman from the House of Auersperg. Based on a comparative analysis, we can identify the sitter as Eleonora Maria Rosalia Princess of Eggen- berg (1647−1703). In the paper, the results of the latest research on provenance, the time of origin and the authorship of the already known portraits of the princess are presented, as well as the authorship of a newly identified portrait. Special attention is placed on the public workings of the portrayed and her influence on art commissions at the Eggenberg Manor near Graz.
