Description
Portrait of Count Lev Nikolayevich Tolstoy. The background wash depicts the arc of Tolstoy's life. On the left, he is portrayed as an artillery officer in the Crimean War. The table in the center displays two of the author's famous books, War and Peace and Anna Karenina. The image to the right depicts Tolstoy in his later ascetic role and passionate commitment to nonresistance to evil by force. He gives up his cloak as suggested in Matthew 5:40.
