EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the elegance and grace of Alexandra Petrovna Liovshina, a woman who lived during the 18th century. Painted in 1775 by Dmitri Grigorovich Levitsky, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures an impressive 213x140.5 cm and is currently housed at the State Russian Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia. Alexandra Petrovna Liovshina is depicted wearing a bonnet and a corset, showcasing her fashionable attire of the time. Her poised posture suggests both confidence and refinement as she stands against a neutral background that allows her to take center stage. The artist skillfully portrays Liovshina's delicate features with meticulous attention to detail, capturing every nuance of her expression. The painting exudes an air of tranquility as if frozen in time, inviting viewers to contemplate the life and personality of this enigmatic subject. Liovshina's association with dance is evident from her graceful stance and poise. It is believed that she may have been associated with the Smolny Institute for Noble Maidens in St. Petersburg, known for its emphasis on dance education during that period. Levitsky's masterful brushwork brings this historical figure to life once more, allowing us to glimpse into the past through his artistry. This print serves as a testament to both Levitsky's talent as well as Liovshina's beauty and allure – forever immortalized within this stunning portrait.
