October Festival in Rome (1851). Pimen Orlov (Russian, 1812-1865). Oil on canvas. Tretyakov Gallery.

In 1849, motivating the impossibility of his return to the homeland, Orlov wrote that he had to continue working “on the new painting October in Rome ... my picture can be painted only in Rome, because its subject is taken from the life of its inhabitants and because of many local details that we don’t have back home”. In 1851, the painting was completed and exhibited by the artist in Rome, first in his studio, and then on the Piazza del Popolo. It was a success and received positive reviews in the Italian press.

‘St Peterburg is occupied with the transformations in the attire of ladies-in-waiting and ladies of the court. They say they have come up with a national costume which these ladies shall be obliged to wear for major occasions at the court. It is something like a Frenchified sarafan.’ Pavel Divov, 1833.

Anna Alexeyevna Okulova (1794–1861) was born into an old Muscovite family, the eldest of five daughters of Alexei Matveyevich Okulov and his wife Praskovya Semionovna. With the support of Nicholas I, in 1836 she was given the post of tutoress to his daughter, Grand Duchess Olga Nikolayevna, and appointed a maid-of-honour. On 26 August 1837, Anna Alexeyevna was granted the title maid of the bedchamber. After Olga Nikolayevna married in 1846, Anna Alexeyevna was awarded the Order of St Catherine Small Cross. She lived out her days as a maid-of-honour in the Winter Palace.

She is depicted here wearing a blue maid-of-honour’s dress with silver embroidery as was appropriate for a tutoress of one of the grand duchesses.
