Prince Pyotr Nikolayevich Gruzinsky (Russian: Пётр Николаевич Грузинский; literally "Peter of Georgia"; 1837–1892) was a Russian painter of royal Georgian origin.[1][2][3] Pyotr painted landscapes and genre paintings, and was also known for his paintings of battle scenes from the Caucasus War.[4]

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 of Kartli and the last in the Mukhrani royal line.
