Portrait 

Konstantin Egorovich Makovsky was a prominent Russian artist known for his genre paintings and portraits. This unnamed portrait depicts a young woman in traditional garb, possibly a peasant, with a soft, focused gaze directed at the viewer. Makovsky’s use of color and light, particularly the gentle illumination of the woman’s face, creates a sense of intimacy and draws attention to her delicate features. The artist’s attention to detail in capturing the texture of her clothing and the subtle variations in her expression adds depth and realism to the portrait, showcasing his mastery of the genre.
