Portrait of the Banker Yevgeny Lamansky was painted by Ivan Kramskoi in 1886, during the later period of the artist’s career. The work was executed in Russia using oil on canvas and measures 141 by 109.5 cm. The portrait depicts Evgeny Lamansky, a notable banker, and is an example of Kramskoi’s focus on psychological depth and social status in portraiture. The composition presents Lamansky seated in a formal interior, positioned slightly to the side but facing the viewer.

He wears a dark suit with a white shirt, holding a document in one hand and a pencil in the other, suggesting his professional occupation. The background features a green-covered table with books and writing implements, while the lighting emphasizes the sitter’s face and hands, drawing attention to his expression and the tools of his trade. The palette is dominated by deep reds, greens, and browns, with careful attention to the textures of fabric, wood, and paper. The painting is held in the collection of the Hermitage Museum, Saint Petersburg, under inventory number ЭРЖ-1526.

It stands as a representative example of Russian realist portraiture in the late nineteenth century, reflecting both the stature of the sitter and the technical skill of Kramskoi. The work remains an important part of the museum’s holdings of Russian painting.
