"Emperor Alexander II (1818-81) on His Deathbed" is an 1881 painting by Russian artist Konstantin Egorovich Makovsky. The work is a historical painting that captures the somber moment following the assassination of Tsar Alexander II of Russia, who was known for his liberal reforms, including the emancipation of the serfs in 1861. Makovsky, a prominent member of the Peredvizhniki (Wanderers) movement, was known for his realistic and often emotionally charged depictions of Russian history and society.

The painting portrays the lifeless body of the Tsar laid out on his deathbed, surrounded by grieving family members and attendants. The scene is rendered with a meticulous attention to detail and a somber palette, reflecting the national mourning and the end of an era. Makovsky's work serves as both a historical record and a poignant commentary on the violent end of a ruler who strived to modernize Russia, only to be cut down by an assassin's bomb.

"Emperor Alexander II (1818-81) on His Deathbed" is considered an important work in Makovsky's oeuvre and in the genre of historical painting in 19th-century Russian art. It captures a pivotal moment in Russian history and reflects the period's complex social and political dynamics. The painting is also notable for its portrayal of personal tragedy and the human cost of political strife, themes that resonate with viewers beyond its immediate historical context.
