Portrait of Olga Orlova 1889

"Portrait of Olga Orlova" is a striking oil painting by Konstantin Korovin, completed in 1889. The painting depicts Olga Orlova, a prominent figure in Russian society, standing in a hallway with a white door and a potted plant beside her. The artist's signature Impressionistic style is evident in the loose brushstrokes and the emphasis on light and color. The composition, with Olga positioned off-center, creates a sense of intimacy and invites the viewer to engage with the subject. This work is a testament to Korovin's mastery of portraiture and his ability to capture the essence of his subject.
