Portrait of AN Lvov by Karl Bryullov

It is worrying, for all the flirtatiousness of the pose, with the cape cloaked over his shoulder, the image of AN Lvov.

Slightly forward body and a close look of narrowed eyes seem to be explained not by the shortsightedness of Lviv, but by the effectiveness of character, full of undercurrents.
