About the piece

This 1827 masterpiece by Orest Kiprensky is the definitive portrait of Alexander Pushkin. Captured with thoughtful intensity, the poet is shown in a dark frock coat with a Scottish plaid scarf draped over his shoulder, posed before a background featuring a bronze figurine of Erato, the muse of lyric poetry.
