The portrait art was brilliantly developed in the second half of the XVIIIth century. In the works of F. Rokotov, D. Levitsky, V. Borovikovsky the readers find the arrogance of beauty and delicate dreaminess, whimsical flirtation and spiritual charm. Sentimentalism is inseparably linked with the name of Empress Maria Feodorovna. Elizabeth Alekseevna, the wife of Alexander I, was the embodiment of the ideal of the romantics. Several essays are devoted to the fates of the daughters of Paul I and Maria Feodorovna: Alexander, Helen, Mary, Catherine and Anna.
