Portrait of Selma Alexander
Artist: Boris Grigoriev
Circa: 1919
Grigoriev, a Russian modernist painter and member of the World of Art (Mir Iskusstva) movement, became celebrated for his penetrating portraits of cultural and social figures. Portrait of Selma Alexander presents the sitter in an elegant patterned gown, her poise set against a richly textured interior. Grigoriev’s art often blended realism with expressive modernist stylization, creating portraits that captured both the individuality of his subjects and the broader spirit of an era in transition.
