Portrait of Ivan O. Sukhozanet (1788-1861)

Executed in oil paint, the work features meticulous detail on the uniform's textures, buttons, braided cords, and decorative elements, suggesting a realistic, possibly Neoclassical or early 19th-century European military portraiture style.

Originally part of the collection at the State Hermitage Museum, the portrait's creation date is not specified but can be inferred to be during or shortly after Sukhozanet's lifetime (1788-1861), given the subject's apparent age.

Created during a period of European military pomp, the portrait reflects the era's emphasis on ceremonial attire as a symbol of status and achievement. The plain background further emphasizes the subject's professional identity.
