Count Ernö Zichy was a major Hungarian landowner and an Imperial and Royal Chamberlain. His estate was at Buzinka, near Kassa (now Kosice, in Slovakia), where he owned a famous collection of porcelain. He was married twice, firstly to Baroness Ilona Lo-Presti de la Fonatana d'Angioli (1847-1901), with whom he had a daughter, Ioma, then to Etelka Steinfeld (1860-1943).
Although painted as early as 1905, the present portrait contains the hallmarks of de László's later work. The brushwork is quick and confident and captures the sitter with a speed and ease found in the hand of very few portrait painters.
