Count Karl Firmian
This is one of the most commonly reproduced misattributed portraits. The
boy is actually a young Count Karl Firmian, who was a childhood friend
of Mozart. Note the keyboard’s odd assortment of black keys.
Oil Painting by Thaddäus Helbling, ca. 1767. Original
owned by the Mozarteum, Salzburg
