The Valkyrie. Portrait of the artist and patron Countess Maria Tenisheva (1867-1928), 1899, captures the essence of Russian art nouveau and symbolism in a mesmerizing display of talent by renowned artist Mikhail Alexandrovich Vrubel (1856-1910). This painting, now housed in the State Art Museum in Odessa, is a testament to the artistic prowess of both Vrubel and Countess Maria Tenisheva. Countess Tenisheva, herself an influential figure in Russian society as well as a talented artist and patron, is portrayed here as a powerful Valkyrie - a mythical Norse warrior woman. The portrait exudes strength and determination while also showcasing her refined elegance.

Her role as both an artist herself and a generous benefactor has left an indelible mark on Russia's
