Aleksey Antropov Painting Portrait of Grand Duchess Catherine Alekseevna

Portrait of Grand Duchess Catherine Alekseevna, Future Empress Catherine II the Great. - Famous Art work & Drawing by Aleksey Antropov

Portrait of Grand Duchess Catherine Alekseevna, Future Empress Catherine II the Great.

This attractive portrait of the future Russian Empress has been made with oil on canvas in the 1760s by Aleksey. The picture looks similar to a Hollywood actress of great stature radiating richness and royalty. The well made brooch, neck clinging necklace, the huge ear rings and the plunging neckline exposing her torso have been rendered so modern and something to behold. Her expressive and sharp eyes are bewitching. This portrait has been kept at the Saratov Art Museum at Saratov in Russia.
