Stipple. 110 x 160mm (4¼ x 6¼"), with large margins.
Half portrait set in a roundel of Alexander Vasilievich Suvoroff (c.1729-1800), the fourth (and last) Generalissimo of Russia, famed for never losing a battle, fighting 63. The portrait celebrates his successes in Italy (1799-1800), when his combined Austro-Russian army drove the French out of most of Italy. Promised a triumph, his emnity with the Tsar Paul meant it was never held. When Suvoroff died soon after his return Paul ensured his Generalissimo's funeral honours were downgraded to that of a field marshal. Undoubtedly this pettiness towards a national hero was one of the reasons Paul was assassinated by disaffected army officers less than a year later.

Aleksandr Vasilyevich Suvorov (1729-1800), Russian military commander. He was the fourth and last generalissimo of the Russian Empire.
