Karl Wilhelm Bardou

Karl Wilhelm Bardou (5 August 1774, Berlin - c. 1842) was a German portrait painter who worked in Russia.

He is often confused with another portrait painter, Johann P. Bardou [pl], who also worked in Russia at a slightly earlier period.

He married a Russian, Anna Iwanowna (1786–1840), who died in Darmstadt following a long illness.

The first full exhibition of his works was held in 1999 at the Tropinin Museum [ru], and a catalogue raisonné was published.
