Pietro Rotari (1707-1762)

"Pietro Antonio Rotari (30 September 1707 – 31 August 1762) was an Italian painter of the Baroque period. Born in Verona, he led a peripatetic career, and died in Saint Petersburg, where he had traveled to paint for the Russian court. His portraits, mostly of women, are renowned for being beautiful and realistic. Rotari´s works were generally limited to royal portraits held by notables such as emperors and court ladies." - (en.wikipedia.org 20.11.2019)
