EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolor portrait, titled "Portrait of Viktor Alexandrovich Bibikov" is a stunning representation of the esteemed Russian military figure. Painted by Vladimir Ivanovich Hau between 1846 and 1849, this artwork showcases the artist's mastery in capturing both the physical likeness and inner essence of his subject. Viktor Alexandrovich Bibikov (1807-1883) was a prominent member of the Imperial Horse Guards, serving as part of the prestigious Chevalier Guard Regiment. As one of the personal guards to the Emperor of Russia, Bibikov held an esteemed position within society and played a vital role in protecting imperial interests. Hau's use of watercolors brings life to this portrait, with delicate brushstrokes highlighting Bibikov's features and conveying his strength and dignity. The vibrant colors add depth to his uniform while also reflecting elements of romanticism prevalent during that era. The painting is housed at Pushkin House in St Petersburg under the care of Institute for Russian Literature (IRLI). This institution preserves significant works from Russia's rich artistic heritage for future generations to appreciate. Through this remarkable piece, we catch a glimpse into 19th-century Russia and its proud tradition of military excellence. It serves as a testament not only to Viktor Alexandrovich Bibikov but also to all those who dedicated their lives to protect their country as members of the Imperial Horse Guards.
