The fact that no scholarly biography of Alexander III exists in any language is a clear indication that his reign has been neglected and dismissed as a dark night of reaction and autocratic entrenchment.' Yet an examination of the Tsar as art patron suggests that he played a significant and rather paradoxical role in the development of the fine arts and the advent of the fin de siècle Silver Age of Russian culture.KeywordsNational GalleryRealist PainterHistory PaintingImperial FamilyRussian RealistThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
