This is the chancellor, an associate of Peter I. The image of Golovkin clearly expresses the idea of a man of that era. Thanks to his intelligence, prudence, dexterity, Golovkin managed in the continuation of his activities to conclude 72 treatises with the governments of different countries.
The pose, executed in majestic restraint and ceremonial attire – a brown camisole with a golden braid, the Order of St. Andrew and the Polish Order of the White Eagle, a luxurious wig – give the portrait a special solemnity. In his calm face with clever, penetrating eyes, the feelings of self-esteem and the pride of a Russian diplomat, carrying his mission to the benefit of the state, are conveyed.
