Tsarina Marie Alexandrovna of Russia

1862

Franz Xaver Winterhalter was the ultimate celebrity portraitist of the 19th century, and this 1862 painting of Empress Maria Alexandrovna of Russia shows exactly why. Dressed in a cascade of white ruffles and draped in pearls, she looks every bit the romantic royal, holding a fan with an air of quiet elegance. Winterhalter was famous for making his subjects look flawless and fashionable, essentially creating the royal PR photos of his day.
