About the piece

Commissioned in 1800 and painted by Vladimir Borovikovsky, this grand portrait depicts Tsar Paul I of Russia in full coronation robes, including the dalmatic of the Order of Malta and the Great Imperial Crown. The work is a masterclass in textures, contrasting the soft ermine and rich red velvet of the robes against the cold, polished marble of the classical setting.
