Shuvalov, who was an influential figure in Russian politics and culture, is depicted with the regalia and bearing befitting his status. The etching not only serves as a historical record of an important Russian figure but also exemplifies the cross-cultural exchanges between Russia and Western Europe during the 18th century.
