He had a lot of commissions there, becoming one of the best portrait painters of his time.
Among his best- known portraits are( 1772), sometimes called the Russian Mona Lisa and admittedly the most celebrated piece of the 18th- century Russian painting;" Portrait of Countess Elisabeth Santi"( 1785), and" Lady in a Pink Dress"( 1770s," illustrationright").
