A characteristic example of Vladimir Borovikovsky’s portrait work of the 1790s, done in a manner that combines signs of sentimentalism (the intimate character of the portraits; the landscape background; the gentle, light colour palette) and a certain amount of the classical approach to creating an image, significant and serious. Bezobrazova Anna Sergeevna (née princess Urusova; 1746–1809.
