Portrait of a young lady was executed by Austrian painter Karl Jobst (1835 Mauerkirchen - 1907 Vienna). 

Studied together with his younger brother Franz by Ferdinand Scheck in Linz and from 1857 to 1861 at the Fine Arts Academy in Vienna by Carl Wurzingef and Karl Mayer. He undertook  study travels to South Germany, France and Italy. Together with his brother, he was involved in the restoration of the Gothic Pesenbach winged altar under the supervision of Adalbert Stifter and made drawings of all the important Gothic carvings in Upper Austria, which were published in 1861 under the title Collection of Medieval Artworks from Austria. With his brother, he founded the decoration company "F. & C. Jobst" in Vienna, which specialized in new furnishings and restorations, especially of church buildings. Karl devoted himself particularly to painting and frescoes. Like his brother, he was awarded the Golden Cross of Merit with the Crown.
