Russian portrait painter from the late 1700s, Sokolov captured the faces and poses of his day. He painted *Portrait of Nikita Petrovich Panin* in 1779 and myth scenes like *Daedalus and Icarus* in 1776. Both show crisp details and calm colors from the era’s formal style. Tap *Portrait of Nikita Petrovich Panin* to see how the sitter’s coat folds catch the light.
