Painted with oil on canvas, this artwork measures an impressive 174x117 cm and is housed in the Regional M. Vrubel Art Museum in Omsk. The image captures a female figure seated by a window, exuding an air of elegance and mystery. Dressed in an elaborate oriental gown, she wears a stunning headdress adorned with intricate jewelry that speaks volumes about her wealth and status. The opulent ermine stole draped around her shoulders adds to her regal appearance. Makovsky's attention to detail shines through in every aspect of this painting. From the ornate gold brocade fabric of her dress to the exquisite craftsmanship of her jewelry, no element is spared from his meticulous brushstrokes. The subject herself represents Russian nobility and aristocracy, known as boyars during that era. Her exotic attire hints at influences from Orientalist art movement prevalent during the late 19th century. This print not only captures Makovsky's skillful portrayal of this boyarina but also serves as a testament to his ability to transport viewers into another time and place.
