About the piece
This 1748 portrait by Georg Christoph Grooth depicts Prince Peter Fyodorovich, the future Tsar Peter III of Russia. Executed with the refined technique of the mid-18th century, the work highlights the sophisticated contrast between the sitter's youthful features and the gleaming, cold surface of his ceremonial armor.
