The bust of Paul I by August Spiess was based on the portrait by Jacques-Dominique Rachette created in the 1790s, the same period when the bust of Catherine the Great was created. For the original bust by Rachette, see N.B. von Wolf (ed. V.V. Znamenov), Imperatorskii farforovyi zavod, 1744-1904, St Petersburg, 2008, p. 142.
