Ms. Vostriakova is a 1896 portrait by the Russian artist Victor Stember.

Little is known about the sitter. The family confirmed a cut-down Stember portrait titled "Vostriakova" at the Yusupov Palace in St. Petersburg by providing a photograph from the family album (see the FAQ). The records of the Moscow Society of Art Lovers show a Vostryakov signing collective letters to the Society together with Victor in 1902 and 1903, which suggests the sitter's family moved in the same artistic circle.
