EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait by Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres showcases the dignified presence of Nikolai Dmitrievich Count Guriev, a prominent Russian figure in the 19th century. Painted in 1821, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures 107x86 cm and is currently housed at the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia. Count Guriev's commanding stature is emphasized by his elegant red cloak, which drapes gracefully around him. His piercing gaze and composed expression reveal a sense of authority and intelligence. As a distinguished ambassador for Russia, he served in various countries including the Netherlands, Vatican City, and the Kingdom of Two Sicilies. Ingres skillfully captures Count Guriev's essence as both a grandee and misanthropist through his meticulous attention to detail. Every brushstroke brings out the aristocratic features that define this Russian nobleman - from his chiseled jawline to his refined facial hair. This portrait offers us a glimpse into an era when diplomacy played a crucial role in international relations. Count Guriev stands as an embodiment of power and influence during this time period. Through Ingres' artistry, we are transported back to witness the charisma and sophistication that defined high society in early 19th-century Europe. As we admire this remarkable painting today, it serves as a testament to both Ingres' artistic genius and Count Guriev's significant contributions to Russian diplomacy abroad.
