About this work
Portrait of Sergei Mikhailovich Prokudin-Gorskii as part of his work to document the Russian Empire from 1904 to 1916. Prokudin-Gorsky's camera design required a camera operator to take three individual negatives after each other. Given that Prokudin-Gorsky is seen posing in the image, it is more likely that one of his assistants took the picture.
