EDITORS COMMENTS
Grand Duke Paul Alexandrovich of Russia, in this head-and-shoulders portrait, is depicted facing left between the years 1870 and 1886. The Grand Duke, the second son of Emperor Alexander II of Russia, is dressed in formal attire typical of the late 19th century. The black and white, or monochrome, image showcases the Grand Duke's serious expression and well-groomed beard. During this period, the House of Romanov ruled Russia, with Tsar Alexander II as the reigning monarch. The Grand Duke's clothing, with its high collar and tailored fit, reflects the fashion trends of the time. The portrait, possibly a carte-de-visite, was likely taken during an official meeting or gathering, as evidenced by the Grand Duke's formal attire. The Grand Duke Paul Alexandrovich was born in 1860 and played a significant role in Russian history, particularly during the "Meeting of the Frontiers" in 1881, where he represented Russia in negotiations with the Ottoman Empire. This portrait, a testament to the Grand Duke's heritage and royal lineage, is a valuable addition to any collection of 19th-century Russian history or royalty. This image, from the Library of Congress, is a still photograph that captures a moment in time, offering a glimpse into the life and legacy of Grand Duke Paul Alexandrovich of Russia.
