"Empress of Russia: A Reign of Power and Elegance" Step into the world of Empress Catherine II, also known as Catherine the Great, who ruled over Russia from 1762 to 1796. This captivating portrait by Fyodor Stepanovich Rokotov in 1763 captures her regal beauty and commanding presence. In another remarkable painting by Benjamin Paterssen, we witness Catherine the Great's adventurous spirit as she visits the Ice Mountain in Saint Petersburg in 1788. Her determination and curiosity knew no bounds. The balcony of the Winter Palace witnessed a historic moment on June 28, 1762 - the day of the Palace Revolution. Greeted by loyal guards, Catherine II stood tall and resolute as depicted in this anonymous artwork from the late 18th century. Erichsen's portrayal showcases Empress Catherine during her coronation, adorned in a magnificent robe fit for a queen. The artist skillfully captures her grace and majesty that defined her reign. Flags played an integral role during Catherine's rule - symbolizing power and loyalty. The Leib-Guard Preobrazhensky Regiment flag created by Flags, Banners, and Standards artists in 1742 represents their unwavering dedication to their empress. Another flag belonging to the Grenadier Company of Preobrazhensky Life Guard Regiment is showcased anonymously but speaks volumes about their commitment to protect their ruler since its creation in 1744. Even Tadeusz Kosciuszko couldn't resist being captivated by Catherine II's charm. In Georges Louis Poilleux-Saint-Ange's painting from1883, we see him refusing a sword offered by this formidable empress – a testament to her influence beyond borders. Grand Duke Alexander Alexandrovich graces our attention with his enigmatic presence captured between c1860-c1862. His connection with Empress Catherine II adds another layer to the rich tapestry of Russian history.
