Painting Description
"Count Nikolai Dmitrievich Gouriev" is an oil on canvas portrait by the French Neoclassical painter Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres, completed in 1821. The painting depicts the Russian diplomat and finance minister Count Nikolai Dmitrievich Gouriev, showcasing Ingres's mastery of form and detail, as well as his ability to capture the sitter's character and social standing. Ingres, renowned for his portraits, presents Gouriev in a formal pose, dressed in opulent attire befitting his status, with a subdued palette that emphasizes the subject's dignified bearing.
The portrait is notable for its refined execution and the way it reflects the aesthetic values of the Neoclassical movement, which sought to revive the classical ideals of beauty, harmony, and proportion. Ingres's meticulous technique and the smooth surface of the painting exemplify his dedication to the finish and precision that characterized his work. The portrait of Count Gouriev is also significant in the context of Ingres's career, as it was painted during his time in Florence and Rome, where he served as the director of the French Academy in Rome.
"Count Nikolai Dmitrievich Gouriev" is part of a series of portraits Ingres painted of distinguished European figures of his time, contributing to his international reputation as a leading portraitist. The work is held in a private collection, and its provenance and exhibition history contribute to its scholarly interest. The painting is frequently studied within the broader scope of Ingres's oeuvre and is often cited in discussions of early 19th-century portraiture, diplomacy, and cross-cultural encounters between France and Russia.
