Johann Baptist von Lampi I

Johann Baptist von Lampi was an Austrian-Italian portrait painter renowned for his influential style and significant contributions to the art world. Born in 1751 in Romeno, Tyrol, Lampi’s career took a pivotal turn when he moved to St. Petersburg in 1791. There, he received a hereditary knighthood from the Empress and became a sought-after portraitist, painting notable figures including Empress Catherine II and Maria Feodorovna​​.

Lampi’s work is characterized by its vivid realism and meticulous attention to detail, qualities that made him a favorite in the Russian court and later in Vienna, where he returned in 1797. His portraits, often rich in texture and color, capture the essence of his subjects with striking clarity. Notable works include portraits of King Stanisław II August and Countess Zavadskaya, displayed in major museums like the National Museum in Warsaw and the Łazienki Palace​.
