EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolour portrait, titled "Portrait of Grigory Ivanovich Chertkov" is a stunning piece from the Album of the Imperial Horse Guards. Created by Vladimir Ivanovich Hau between 1846 and 1849, this artwork showcases his exceptional talent in capturing the essence and character of his subject. Grigory Ivanovich Chertkov, a prominent figure in Russian history, comes to life through Hau's delicate brushstrokes. The vibrant colors bring out the richness of his uniform as a member of the Chevalier Guard Regiment within the Russian Imperial Guard. This portrayal highlights not only Chertkov's distinguished position but also reflects the opulence and grandeur associated with Russia during that time. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this painting – from Chertkov's expressive face to intricate embellishments on his attire. Through this work, Hau successfully conveys both strength and vulnerability, capturing an intimate glimpse into Chertkov's personality. Displayed at Pushkin House within St Petersburg's Institute of Russian Literature (IRLI), this masterpiece holds historical significance for its depiction of one man amidst a larger narrative about Russia's imperial era. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back to 19th-century Russia—a time when art flourished alongside political power and cultural prestige. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this artwork for us all to appreciate its beauty and historical value today.
