Estimate: 4000-5000€Portrait of Tsarevich Alexei Nikolaevich Romanov
Russia, circa 1913-1914.
Oil on canvas.
In a carved and gilded wood frame. Dimensions with the frame: 70,5 x 62 x 9,5 cm. Dimensions without the frame: 46 x 38 cm
A sensitive child portrait depicting Tsarevich Alexei Nikolaevich, shown in the sailor suit that became inseparable from his public image from earliest childhood. Presented half-length against a softly muted background, the young sitter faces the viewer directly, his features delicately modelled and his expression combining youthful openness with ceremonial restraint.
The sailor costume was not merely a charming feature of childhood dress, but part of the visual language of the Romanov dynasty. Boys of the Imperial family were raised with military service in view and from an early age wore naval dress, uniforms, or the costume of specific regiments. Civilian clothing was used only rarely, most often during holidays abroad. In this context, Alexei’s sailor suit reflects both dynastic tradition and the close symbolic association of the Romanovs with the Russian Navy. The same convention appears in earlier portraits and photographs of Emperor Alexander III and Grand Duke Mikhail Alexandrovich, likewise represented in sailor costume.Starting price: 3000€
