Summary/Abstract: The Second Half of the 18th Century Highlights a New Fashion in Painting, the Portrait in Landscape that Combines the Portrait and the Landscape. The long series of female portraits arouse admiration and are imitated all over Europe. The Transylvanian space joins the new artistic trend, and we owe some spectacular achievements in this field to one of the most famous painters of the genre, Johann Martin Stock. The National Museum of History of Transylvania shelters in its collections a compositional portrait signed by Johann Martin Stock, Portrait of a Woman, 1787, a remarkable success of the 18th century local painting.
