Painting Description
"Portrait of Grand Duke Andrei Vladimirovich as a Child" is an oil painting by the Finnish artist Albert Edelfelt, completed in 1881. The work is a representation of the young Grand Duke Andrei Vladimirovich of Russia, who was a member of the Russian imperial family. Born in 1879, the Grand Duke was the son of Grand Duke Vladimir Alexandrovich of Russia and Grand Duchess Maria Pavlovna, and he was a grandson of Tsar Alexander II.
Edelfelt, who was well-regarded for his portraiture, was one of the few foreign artists who gained access to the Russian imperial court, which speaks to his considerable reputation during that era. The portrait is notable for its fine detail, the softness of its brushwork, and the sensitive depiction of the young Grand Duke's character. The child is portrayed in a relaxed pose, which was somewhat unusual for royal portraiture of the time, often characterized by its formality. This informality suggests a level of intimacy and comfort between the artist and his subject, and it reflects the influence of French painting on Edelfelt, who had studied in Paris.
The painting is a significant work in Edelfelt's oeuvre, as it exemplifies his skill in capturing the likeness and personality of his sitters, as well as his ability to navigate the complexities of painting members of the European aristocracy. It also provides a glimpse into the private world of the Russian imperial family before the tumultuous events of the early 20th century.
"Portrait of Grand Duke Andrei Vladimirovich as a Child" is held in a private collection, and it has been exhibited in various art exhibitions focusing on Edelfelt's work and Russian imperial portraiture. The painting is often discussed in the context of Edelfelt's career and his contributions to Finnish art, as well as in studies of cultural interactions between Finland and Russia during the late 19th century.
