But he had to this time certain skills in the construction and painting of the battle scenes and in 1845 received a silver medal for his painting "The Battle of Lutzen."

In 1850, Mr. Shukaev was awarded the title of class artist. In subsequent years, he creates a series of paintings depicting scenes of contemporary warfare. Some of them were successful and were eagerly bought by amateurs battle painting. For example, written in 1862, the painting "The military camp in the Caucasus" is now stored in the Russian Museum.
