A captivating early 20th-century oil portrait of one of history’s most enigmatic figures: Prince Felix Yusupov. Painted "after" the famous 1903 masterpiece by Valentin Serov, this work captures the young Prince—the wealthiest man in Imperial Russia and the future assassin of Rasputin—alongside his beloved French Bulldog, Gugusse.
This piece is a masterful "period copy" signed by the artist B. Cupoli with a 903 reference. It features the iconic "bat-ear" French Bulldog that became a symbol of the Belle Époque elite. The brushwork is confident and painterly, perfectly capturing the Prince’s famously haughty, aristocratic gaze.
