Princess Ekaterina Lobanova-Rostovskaya is depicted in a red mantel trimmed with ermine. She was described by a contemporary as «not knowing pride, affectionate, polite, kind to one and all, charitable, received an excellent education and had a merry disposition, which did not change even in venerable old age.» Princess Ekaterina Alexandrovna Lobanova-Rostovskaya (1735–1802): Daughter of Prince Alexander Kurakin.
