Who is this man?

I found this while searching Bavarian Orders. I couldn’t determine who this man is and nothing in the associated text gave me a clue, I’m not very sharp and admit the answer may be in front of my face.

What I find fascinating is the man must be either a general or a royal. Maybe both are possible. From the awards he looks to be Austrian in German uniform but I may be wrong.

Hi Glenn, thanks so much. You’re faster than a computer on identifying these ww1 characters.

I knew he looked familiar but couldn’t figure it out.
