A fine miniature of Countess Coudenhove, née Countess Hatzfeld (d. 1826), with crossed arms leaning on a white silk cushion, in lace-bordered turquoise silk dress with black ribbon banded around her arms, black sash, elaborate turquoise silk headgear with long floating gauze veil in her powdered curling hair; draped grey curtain background

The Countess was the niece and housekeeper of Frederick Charles Joseph Baron of Erthal, Elector and Archbishop of Mainz (1719-1802). The present miniature is the pair to the identically framed portrait of the Elector, painted during Füger's stay at the Elector's court at Mainz in 1789, illustrated in Bourgoing (op. supra., 1926, pl. 7), now in the Albertina, Vienna (illustrated and described in N. Keil, Die Miniaturen der Albertina in Wien, Vienna, 1977, p. 84, no. 130).
