Empress Elisabeth on horseback
Kaendler took portraitist Georg Christoph Grooth’s 1743 painting “Portrait of Elisabeth Petrovna on a horse with a black boy” which now adorns the Tretyakov Gallery as a basis for the figure. Elizabeth's reign can be characterized by two important factors: abolition of death penalty and a relatively peaceful reign, as there were almost no wars under the rule of Elisabeth.
