Wilhelm August Golicke

Between 1822 and 1828 Dawe, together with Golicke and another of his students, Alexander Polyakov, a serf, painted 332 portraits of Tsarist Generals who had distinguished themselves in the war against Napoleon.

Dawe became a good friend of Golicke's during their work together and left him an annuity in his will.

[2] After Dawes' death, Golicke studied at the Imperial Academy of Arts.

He graduated in 1832 and was named an "Independent Artist" (Cвободный Xудожник), a sign of official recognition.

[1] His post-Dawe work consisted largely of genre paintings, still-lifes and scenes from history.
