About the Item
The picture is oil on canvas.
Catherine II the Great (born Sophie Auguste Friederike von Anhalt-Zerbst-Dornburg, in Orthodoxy Yekaterina Alekseyevna, April 21 [May 2], 1729, Stettin, Prussia – November 6 [17] 1796, Winter Palace, Petersburg) – the Empress of All the Russias from 1762 to 1796.The daughter of the Prince of Anhalt-Zerbst, Catherine came to power as a result of a palace coup that dethroned Peter III, her unpopular husband.Catherine’s era was characterized with the maximum peasant serfdom strictness and a comprehensive expansion of the privileges of the nobility.Under Catherine the Great, the borders of the Russian Empire were significantly expanded to the west (partitions of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth) and to the south (inclusion of Novorossiya, Crimea, and, partially, the Caucasus).The system of state administration under Catherine II was reformed for the first time since the time of Peter I. Culturally, Russia eventually became one of the great European powers, and the empress herself contributed a lot to it: she was fond of literary activity, collected painting masterpieces, and led correspondence with the French enlighteners. In general, Catherine’s policy and her reforms fit into the trend of enlightened absolutism of the 18th century.
