About the piece
Painted in 1811 by Carl Christian Vogel von Vogelstein, this oil portrait depicts Prince Vasili Vasiljevits Dolgoruki. The sitter is rendered with a gentle expression and romanticized dark curls, set against a moody, atmospheric background that highlights the ornate gold embroidery of his uniform and his military honors.
