"Portrait of Emperor Nicholas I" is an oil painting by the German artist Franz Krüger, also known as Franz Xaver Krüger, created in 1851. The painting depicts Nicholas I of Russia, who reigned as Emperor of Russia from 1825 until his death in 1855. Krüger, renowned for his portraiture and representation of military parades and equestrian subjects, was commissioned to capture the likeness of the Emperor, reflecting his status and authority.

The portrait is characterized by its grandeur and attention to detail, typical of state portraits of the era. Nicholas I is portrayed in full military regalia, adorned with the regal insignias and decorations befitting his imperial rank. The Emperor's stern expression and imposing posture are emblematic of his reputation as a strict ruler who emphasized military discipline and autocracy, which were hallmarks of his reign.

Franz Krüger's meticulous brushwork is evident in the rendering of textures and materials, from the luxurious fabrics of Nicholas I's uniform to the gleaming medals on his chest. The background of the painting, though subdued, complements the figure of the Emperor, often incorporating elements that signify his power and the expanse of the Russian Empire.

As a significant work of 19th-century portraiture, "Portrait of Emperor Nicholas I" by Franz Krüger not only serves as an important historical record but also exemplifies the artistic conventions and societal values of the period. The painting is held in high regard for its artistic merit and as a representation of the persona of one of Russia's most influential leaders. It remains an important piece in the study of royal portraiture and the cultural heritage of Russia.
