Peredvizhniki painter of historical scenes Konstantin Makovsky rendered life with a Romantic sensibility. “Portrait of a Young Girl” depicts a child of middle classes, resplendent in a shimmery yellow and gold dress. The innocence and happiness of the subject is evoked wonderfully by the artist using devotional brushstrokes.
