"Portrait of a Boy in Soldier's Cap" is a 19th-century painting by Russian artist Ivan Kuz'mich Makarov. Known for his portraits, Makarov captured the image of a young boy dressed in a military-style cap, reflecting the romanticization of military attire in the period's youth fashion. The painting is notable for its fine detail, the lifelike representation of the boy, and the subtle interplay of light and shadow that Makarov employed to give depth to the subject's features.

Ivan Kuz'mich Makarov (1822–1897) was a prominent Russian portraitist whose work was recognized for its realism and psychological depth. He was a member of the Imperial Academy of Arts and enjoyed the patronage of the Russian nobility. In "Portrait of a Boy in Soldier's Cap," Makarov's skill in capturing the innocence and earnestness of his young subject is evident. The boy's gaze, directed outward, seems to invite the viewer into a silent dialogue, a characteristic feature of Makarov's portraiture that sought to reveal the inner world of the individuals he painted.

The painting serves as a historical document, offering insights into the cultural and social norms of the time, particularly in the way children were often depicted in adult-like clothing and settings, which was a common practice in portraiture of the era. The artwork is also a testament to the technical proficiency and artistic sensitivity of Makarov, whose legacy includes a number of significant contributions to Russian art.

While the exact date of creation, current location, and provenance of "Portrait of a Boy in Soldier's Cap" may not be well-documented, the work remains an important example of Ivan Kuz'mich Makarov's portrait art and 19th-century Russian painting. It continues to be of interest to art historians and collectors who study the period and the genre of portraiture.
