EDITORS COMMENTS
This head-and-shoulders portrait captures Grand Duke Vladimir Aleksandrovich of Russia, the eldest son of Emperor Alexander II, in an elegant and formal attire between 1860 and 1870. The Grand Duke, born in 1847, is depicted facing right, with a serious yet thoughtful expression. During this period, the House of Romanov was at the height of its power, and the Russian Empire was expanding its borders through the Congress of Berlin and the Meeting of the Frontiers. The Grand Duke is dressed in a military uniform, indicative of his role as a member of the imperial family and the Russian military. The photograph, likely a carte de visite, showcases the intricate details of his uniform, including the gold braid, buttons, and insignia. The portrait is a testament to the grandeur and heritage of the Romanov dynasty during the 1870s. Emperor Alexander II, also known as Tsar Alexander II, reigned from 1855 to 1881, and his son Vladimir Aleksandrovich was a significant figure in the imperial court. The portrait serves as a reminder of the rich history and traditions of the Russian Empire during the 19th century and the influential role of the Romanov dynasty. The Library of Congress in Washington D.C. is the current location of this intriguing and historically valuable portrait. The portrait's unknown creator adds to its mystery, making it a fascinating piece of art and historical record.
