This black and white lithograph, titled "Portrait of Major General Nikolay Sleptsov (1815-1851)", captures the essence of a brave soldier who fought in the turbulent times of the Caucasian Wars. The anonymous artist skillfully portrays Sleptsov's stern yet determined expression, reflecting his unwavering commitment to defending Russia's interests in the North Caucasus region. The backdrop of this portrait showcases majestic mountains, symbolizing both the challenging terrain where Sleptsov led his troops and the indomitable spirit that characterized their resistance against local guerrilla fighters. This image serves as a powerful testament to not only Sleptsov's military prowess but also to the courage and resilience displayed by all those involved in these holy wars. Discovered within the esteemed collection of the Russian State Library in Moscow, this lithograph offers a glimpse into an era when book design merged with fine art images. It provides us with valuable insight into one man's role during a tumultuous period in Russian history.
