"Portrait of Peter the Great" is a notable oil painting by Sir Godfrey Kneller, a leading portraitist in England during the late 17th and early 18th centuries. Created in 1698, this artwork captures Tsar Peter I of Russia, commonly known as Peter the Great, during his visit to England as part of his Grand Embassy—a diplomatic mission aimed at strengthening and broadening Russia's ties with Western Europe. The portrait is significant both as a work of art and as a historical document, reflecting the cultural and political exchanges of the era.

Kneller, born Gottfried Kniller in Lübeck, Germany, was the principal painter to British monarchs from Charles II to George I. He was renowned for his ability to depict his subjects with a blend of realism and idealization, a style that made him a favorite among the British aristocracy. In this portrait, Kneller presents Peter the Great in a stately pose, dressed in armor and draped with luxurious fabrics, symbolizing his military prowess and royal status. The portrait is imbued with the Baroque sensibilities of the time, characterized by dramatic lighting, rich colors, and a sense of movement, all of which serve to enhance the grandeur of the subject.

The "Portrait of Peter the Great" by Kneller is not only a masterful representation of one of Russia's most transformative leaders but also serves as a testament to the cross-cultural interactions of the late 17th century. The painting is held in high esteem for its artistic merit and as a visual record of the relationship between Russia and England during a period of significant change and modernization in Russian history.
