1. Title: "Nikolaï Alekseevich Miliutin: A Prominent Reformer in Late 19th Century Russia" This head-and-shoulders portrait showcases Nikolaï Alekseevich Miliutin (1846-1912), a significant figure in late 19th century Russian politics. The image, captured between 1880 and 1886, depicts Miliutin in a formal uniform, facing slightly right, with a serious yet thoughtful expression. Miliutin's attire reflects the fashion of the time, with a crisp, white collar and a dark, tailored jacket. The black-and-white, or b&w, photograph is reminiscent of the cartes de visite format popular during this era. Miliutin's political career spanned various roles, including Minister of War, Minister of Finance, and Minister of Internal Affairs. He is best known for his role in the emancipation of the serfs and the establishment of local self-governance through the zemstvo system. These reforms marked a significant shift towards liberalism in Russian politics and society. The portrait, now held in the Library of Congress, offers a glimpse into the past, revealing the appearance of a man who played a pivotal role in shaping Russia's political landscape during the meeting of frontiers between the old and the new. Miliutin's image stands as a testament to the country's rich heritage and the complexities of its political history. As a reformer, Miliutin's legacy extends beyond the borders of Russia, influencing political thought and governance in various parts of the world. This portrait serves as a reminder of the enduring impact of individuals on the course of history.
