Feodor Petrovich Uvarov was a nobleman. In 1775 he was enlisted as a sergeant, and in 1788 — captain of the Sofia Infantry Regiment. His career skyrocketed under Emperor Paul I: in 1798 he was promoted to colonel, then to major general, and finally to adjutant general.

In 1799, Feodor Uvarov was appointed chief of the Cavalry Regiment and in 1800 he became lieutenant general. He distinguished himself in the campaign of 1805, for which he was awarded the Orders of St. Alexander Nevsky and St. George, 3rd class.

After the battles near Guttstadt, Feodor Uvarov received the Order of St. Vladimir, 2nd class, and for the battles of Heilsberg and Friedland — a golden sword “For bravery” with diamonds. In 1810, he commanded the vanguard of the Danube Army and was awarded the Order of St. George, 2nd class.

In 1812, the general took command of the 1st reserve cavalry corps. He fought near the Kolotsky Monastery. In the Battle of Borodino, he raided the enemy’s left flank. While pursuing the French, he participated in the battles of Vyazma and Krasny.

He was in the retinue of Emperor Alexander I in the campaigns of 1813–1814. For distinction in the Battle of Leipzig, he was promoted to cavalry general. As of 1821 he commanded the Guards Corps, and in 1823 he became a member of the State Council.

Feodor Petrovich Uvarov was awarded the Orders of St. Andrew the Apostle the First-Called, St. Anna, 1st class, St. John of Jerusalem, as well as four foreign orders. The general died after a long illness in the winter of 1824. He was buried in the Alexander Nevsky Lavra in St. Petersburg.

The original portrait of the military commander was painted by the English artist George Dawe in the 1820s for the Military Gallery of the Winter Palace. Feodor Uvarov is depicted half-turned to the viewer, his gaze directed into the distance and slightly upwards. This posture is typical for portraits of those generals who personally posed for Dawe. The background behind the figure resembles stormy clouds. The reproduction displayed in the Borodino Museum-Reserve was made in 1961 by the artist Nikolay Zhashkov from the Studio of Military Artists named after Mitrofan Grekov.
