Konstantin Makovskii studied at the Moscow School of Painting and Sculpture and then at the Petersburg Academy of Arts.
He produced historical and social scenes, as well as being a portrait painter of some renown, but his significance lies more in the role he played as a founding member of the Wanderers art society. As a member of the Wanderers, Makovskii was most notable for his new subject matter, namely the common people. However, he split with the society in 1883 and by 1891 had become a member of the newly formed and more Salon-oriented St. Petersburg Society of Artists, of which he was subsequently to become president. Makovskii often veered towards sentimentalism as can be seen in the above portrait.
