"Portrait of Mme NM Polovtsova" is an oil painting by the French artist Charles Émile Auguste Carolus-Duran, created in 1876. Carolus-Duran, known for his elegant and sophisticated portraits of the Parisian elite, captured the likeness of Madame Natalia Matveevna Polovtsova, a Russian aristocrat and socialite, in this work. The painting is a testament to the artist's skill in rendering the textures of fabrics and the subtleties of flesh tones, as well as his ability to convey the social status and personality of his sitters.

The portrait is characterized by its refined execution and the sitter's direct gaze, which engages the viewer. Mme Polovtsova is depicted wearing a luxurious gown that exemplifies the fashion of the period, and her pose and expression suggest a sense of confidence and grace. The background of the painting is typically muted, a common feature in Carolus-Duran's portraits, which serves to highlight the figure of the sitter.

As a prominent portraitist of the 19th century, Carolus-Duran influenced many other artists, including the young John Singer Sargent, who was one of his most famous students. "Portrait of Mme NM Polovtsova" is not only a representation of Carolus-Duran's artistic prowess but also a reflection of the cultural and social milieu of the time. The painting is part of a larger body of work that documents the appearance and fashions of the European aristocracy in the late 19th century.

The artwork remains an important piece within Carolus-Duran's oeuvre and contributes to the understanding of portraiture during the Second French Empire and the early Third Republic. It is held in private collections or museums and occasionally appears in exhibitions focusing on French portraiture or the broader context of 19th-century European art.
