1847 · Saint-Pétersbourg : J. Guillou · 23 pictures

L'Artiste russe was an 1847 French-language periodical of fine arts and literature, compiled by a society of artists and writers and published by J. Guillou in Saint Petersburg for educated readers. Its pictures are engraved plates in fine pencil-like line: a sacred scene under a radiant cloud of angels, a half-circle group of mourners in drapery, and a long riding procession on a rough hillside, with figures in robes and cloaks that suggest classical staging for designers studying compositional tableaux.
