Sažetak
The late medieval Eltz Castle (Burg Eltz), situated in southwest Germany, has been owned by Counts of Eltz for centuries. In the second half of the 19th century it was restored through the efforts of Karl and Ludwina Eltz nee Pejačević. They installed numerous family coats of arms in the castle interior and commissioned the painter Eduard Knackfuss to restore the late medieval wall paintings and to paint new ones in Ludwina’s study. His works exemplify the historicist approach evident in the choice of Neo-Gothic style characterized by rich vegetative and zoomorphic ornaments, accompanied by portraits of the married couple and their children as homage to the Eltz family.
