Portrait of Wiktoria née Potocka 1.v. Choiseul Gouffier 2.v. wife of general Bakhmatiev

Rustem employed chiaroscuro to create depth, evident in the contrast between the subject's illuminated face and the darker, mottled grey and white background. The use of impasto adds texture, particularly in the depiction of the subject's curly brown hair and the ruffled neckline.

Created in 1807, the painting is now part of the National Museum in Warsaw's collection. Rustem, an Armenian-born artist, was active in the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth and also taught at Vilnius University.

The painting reflects the artistic tastes of the early 19th-century Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth elite, with Rustem's style influenced by contemporary European portraiture trends.

As one of Rustem's noted works, the portrait contributes to the understanding of early 19th-century portraiture in Eastern Europe, showcasing the artist's skill in capturing the essence of his prominent sitters.
