An earlier version of this large portrait with a view of the Kremlin beyond (fig. 1), painted in 1856, used to hang in the private rooms of His Imperial Majesty in the Moscow Kremlin (see D. Skalon, The 100 years of the War Ministry, 1802-1902, St Petersburg, 1902, vol. XI, part I, p. 826, illustrated).
