Born in 1822, Kosmich's talent for portraiture blossomed throughout his career, leaving behind a legacy that continues to captivate art enthusiasts. One notable piece is "Portrait of Alexandra Chelischeva, " created during the 1860s-1870s. Makarov skillfully portrays Chelischeva's grace and elegance, showcasing her timeless allure. In another masterpiece titled "Girls Head, " painted between 1850-1860, we witness Makarov's ability to capture innocence and youth with remarkable precision.

Through delicate strokes, he reveals the young count's curiosity and potential. The artist didn't limit himself to individuals alone; he also depicted familial connections such as Maria Alexandrovna Gartung (nee Pushkina) and Natalia Alexandrovna Pushkina, Countess of Merenberg – both daughters of renowned poet Alexander Pushkin.

Each portrait captures their unique personalities while showcasing the artist's attention to detail. In one particularly charming painting from the 1860s titled "Girl with Dog, " we see an endearing bond between a young girl and her loyal companion—a testament to Kosmich’s ability to evoke emotion through artistry.
