Theresia Anna Maria von Brühl
Theresia Anna Maria von Brühl, Gräfin von Thun und Hohenstein (1784–1844) was a German noble and pastellist.
Born in Pförten, today the village of Brody, Żary County, von Brühl was the daughter of Aloys Friedrich Joseph Graf von Brühl and his wife Josepha Christina Amalie Schaffgotsch genannt Semperfrei von und zu Kynast und Greiffenstein, and therefore a niece of the patroness . In 1808 she married Franz Antoni, Graf von Thun und Hohenstein (1786–1873). It seems unlikely that she was working before 1800; the earliest to which any of her pieces can be ascribed is 1803. One of her pastels is a Vestal copied after a work by Angelica Kauffman that is today in the Gemäldegalerie, Dresden; another, a Sybil, bears some resemblance to a painting by Anton Rafael Mengs.[1]
