EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print depicts Alexandr Dmitrievich Lansky, a Russian soldier who held the esteemed position of being a favorite of Empress Catherine the Great. Created by Dmitry Levitsky in 1782 and reproduced in 1965, this artwork showcases the remarkable talent of the artist and offers us a glimpse into the past. Lansky, born in 1758 and tragically passing away at just 26 years old in 1784, was an influential figure during his time. His close relationship with Empress Catherine II highlights his significance within Russian society. The painting captures Lansky's dignified presence as he stands confidently before us. The use of color is striking; vibrant reds dominate the composition, accentuating Lansky's military uniform and emphasizing his status as a soldier. The intricate details on his sash and silk fabric add depth to the painting, showcasing Levitsky's meticulous attention to detail. Through this portrait print, we are transported back to eighteenth-century Russia - a time when power dynamics were shifting and individuals like Lansky played crucial roles in shaping history. Vladimir Fiala's book "Russian Painting of the 18th and 19th Centuries" serves as an invaluable resource for those seeking further insight into this period. As we admire this piece of art from Artia, Czechoslovakia, let us appreciate both its aesthetic beauty and historical significance. It serves as a testament to the skillful craftsmanship of Dmitry Levitsky while immortalizing Alexandr Dmitrievich Lansky – forever capturing his legacy within Russian history.
