Painting by Semyon Fiodorovich Shchedrin (1745-1804)
The elder of the painting Shchedrins (uncle of Silvestr), he painted royal locations, but it seems without intent to overawe the viewer with the prerogative and power that attaches to these locations. These look like sites that any person would enjoy, with far more natural effects than with architectural bravado.
