Pavel Ivanovich Porohovnikov
Pavel Ivanovich Porohovnikov is a Realism artist. 2 works are cataloged here, principally at Hermitage Museum.
Pavel Porohovnikov painted two oil portraits in 1879, each named for its subject: Portrait of N.I. Miller and Portrait D.B. Bronevskogo. Both works sit squarely in the Russian realist tradition of the late 19th century, aiming to capture their sitters’ likenesses with unflinching detail rather than idealized flourish. To see how this style handled fabric folds and facial planes at close range, tap into Portrait of N.I. Miller.
