EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enigmatic figure of Grigory Yefimovich Rasputin and his family at their home in Pokrovskoe. Rasputin, a Siberian peasant turned mystic, gained immense influence as a favorite at the court of Emperor Nicholas II and Empress Alexandra of Russia. In this image, we see him surrounded by his wife Praskovia and their five children - three sons and two daughters. The composition showcases the rustic charm of rural life, with a cottage serving as the backdrop for this intriguing group portrait. Rasputin's long beard and intense gaze hint at his controversial reputation as a religious prophet or mad monk. The presence of young girls adds an element of innocence amidst the aura of madness that surrounds him. Capturing the essence of early 20th-century Russia, this photograph offers a glimpse into both personal and historical dimensions. It portrays not only Rasputin's role within Russian society but also highlights the significance placed on family values during that era. Taken by an anonymous Russian photographer, this rare image is part of a private collection now made available to art enthusiasts worldwide through Fine Art Finder. Its timeless quality transports us back to an era filled with intrigue, mysticism, and controversy surrounding one man who left an indelible mark on history.
