Milch Hermann (Portrait of Hermann Milch)
Milch Hermann (Portrait of Hermann Milch) is a 1920 portrait drawing by György Rauscher, an early work depicting a member of the painter’s maternal Milch family.
The drawing, in an oval format, shows an older bearded man in spectacles, balding, in a jacket and tie, worked in fine pencil line with light hatching. It is an assured academic likeness from before the painter’s turn to New Objectivity.
It belongs to the early works, made in the years of his first training under Harmos Károly (see /biography/training); the Milch family was the maternal line of the painter’s mother, Milch Emma (see /venues/komarom).
