Prince Petre Nikolozis Dze Gruzinsky[1] (31 December [O.S. 19 December] 1837 — 1 June [O.S. 20 May] 1892), russified as Pyotr Nikolayevich Gruzinsky,[1] was a Russian painter of royal Georgian origin, primarily known for his military and genre pictures[2][3][4][5]

He was the son of Prince Nikoloz Gruzinsky and a scion of Mukhrani royal line of the Bagrationi dynasty that had moved to Imperial Russia in the 18th century. Pyotr Nikolayevich Gruzinsky was the last direct male descendant of King Vakhtang VI and the last in the Mukhrani royal line.
