Early Life and Artistic Awakening Romain de Tirtoff, universally recognized as Erté, was born into a world of aristocratic tradition in Saint Petersburg, Russia, on November 23, 1892. His lineage traced back centuries to Tatar khans—a heritage that instilled within him an innate appreciation for grandeur and meticulous craftsmanship. His father, Admiral Nikolai Tirtoff, served with distinction in the Imperial Russian Navy, shaping young Romain’s understanding of discipline and ambition.

A chart of Erté's corpus mapped not by date but by subject. Spokes are what they painted; rings are when; and the threads between stars reveal the patrons and places that secretly connect them.
Each arm of the atlas gathers works by what they depict: portraits, sacred scenes, mythologies, and the scientific studies. Click a spoke to swing that cluster to the top.
Distance from the center marks time. The innermost ring is the earliest period; the outermost, the final years. Style matures as you move outward.
Coloured lines link works bound by the same patron, commission, or theme. Trace a context to watch related clusters light up across subjects.
