1795 Grand Duchess Elena Pavlovna of Russia, later Duchess of Mecklenburg-Schwerin by Vladimir Lukich Borovikovsky (location unknown to gogm)
This portrait shows details of construction. Her bodice has a flat stomacher, most evident from the lack of curvature of her waist band. Her vest-like over-bodice has a break where it becomes an over-skirt while her under-bodice contributes her under-sleeves and also becomes an under-skirt.
