EDITORS COMMENTS
In this half-length portrait, Petr Andreevich Shuvalov (1837-1889) is depicted facing right, dressed in a formal military uniform between 1880 and 1886. The image, created during the 19th century and the 1880s, captures the enigmatic presence of this Russian statesman and counsellor to Emperor Alexander II. Emperor Alexander II, also known as Alexander II of Russia or Tsar Alexander II, reigned from 1855 to 1881. During his rule, Russia underwent significant political and social changes, including the Emancipation Reform of 1861, which abolished serfdom. Shuvalov, a prominent figure in Russian politics, was an influential advisor to the emperor during this transformative period. The portrait showcases Shuvalov's impeccable attire, complete with epaulets and a sash adorned with the imperial Russian coat of arms. The photograph, reminiscent of the cartes de visite era, conveys a sense of formality and elegance. The image was likely taken during a significant political event or meeting of the frontiers, as Shuvalov's role as a statesman required him to be present at various high-level gatherings. The portrait, now part of the extensive collection at the Library of Congress, serves as a testament to the rich heritage of Russian history and the fashion of the 19th century. The image captures the essence of a man who played a pivotal role in shaping the political landscape of Russia during the reign of Emperor Alexander II. This portrait invites us to delve deeper into the history of this fascinating era, offering a glimpse into the life of a man who left an indelible mark on Russian history.
