Portrait of Alexander Pushkin by Vasily Tropinin

Vasily Andreevich Tropinin (Russian: Василий Андреевич Тропинин) (March 30 (O.S. March 19) 1776 – May 16 (O.S. May 4) 1857) was a Russian painter who worked in the Romantic movement. Much of his life was spent as a serf; he didn't attain his freedom until he was more than forty years old. His artistic output is reduced as such. Two of his more important works are a portrait of Alexander Pushkin and a portrait called "The Lace Maker."
