Aaah, thank you! :D I am having a lot of fun with historical-ish art, so I might make some more! Half of my current sketchbook is full of powdered wigs and memes, I have to use that chaotic creative energy somewhere.
Oh, that's really interesting! I read somewhere (probably Katte Ordre und Kriegsartikel, i remember there being a footnote about Katte portraits) that the picture was finished after his death, but that it was started after his death too is an interesting new fact :D And that it was made by another Francke-Alumnus is pretty cool! I mainly chose this one because it's the only one i know that is in colour (apart from the one with his sister) and that made mapping out the colour sections a lot easier. Of course the most important thing is getting The Eyebrows™ right since that appears to be what really stood out about him to other people :'D
