EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the noble and refined countenance of Prince Juri Nikolayevich Golitsyn, a prominent Russian composer and musician of the 19th century. The image, created by the skilled hands of Oskar Bogdanovich May in 1870, is a testament to the artist's mastery of the woodcut technique. Prince Golitsyn, born in 1823 into the esteemed Golitsyn family, was not only a member of the Russian nobility but also a virtuoso musician and composer. He was known for his exceptional skills on the violin and piano, and his compositions, which ranged from chamber music to operas, were widely performed in Russia and Europe. May's portrait beautifully conveys the composer's intellectual and artistic sensibilities, with his piercing gaze and thoughtful expression. The artist's use of intricate lines and delicate shading in the woodcut medium adds depth and texture to the image, bringing out the subtle details of Golitsyn's features and the richness of his attire. This portrait is a rare and precious glimpse into the life of a remarkable figure in Russian musical history. It is a testament to the enduring power of art to capture the essence of a person and preserve their legacy for future generations.
