Catherine II, also known as Catherine the Great, was a prominent figure in Russian history. Born in 1729, she ascended to the throne as Empress of Russia in 1762 and ruled until her death in 1796.

Another painting depicts her wearing a magnificent coronation gown from around 1762.

Artistic creations like "Landscape containing fifteen silhouettes" or hand-colored etchings like "Royal Recreation" showcase different aspects of life during Catherine's rule. Furthermore, one intriguing piece titled "The Bombardment of All the Thrones of Europe and the Fall of Tyrants for Happi. . " reflects how some viewed her reign amidst revolutionary sentiments sweeping across Europe during that era. Lastly, lithographs like "Famous Beauties.
