Large antique-framed painting, 98 x 77 cm, identified as a 19th-century copy of Constantin Flavitsky’s famous “Princess Tarakanova.” A dramatic historical scene with rich narrative tension and collectible period charm.

Description

This large painting in an antique frame appears to be a 19th-century copy of Constantin Flavitsky’s celebrated Princess Tarakanova. The composition preserves the dramatic mood of the original while adding its own visual character, especially in the more pronounced presence of rats in the lower part of the scene.

The work carries the emotional force that made Flavitsky’s painting famous: a dark, oppressive interior, floodwater at the window, and a sense of impending tragedy. Framed in an old gilded surround and measuring 98 x 77 cm, it has strong decorative and historical appeal for a collector of Russian art or period interiors.
