EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a magnificent porcelain vase, dating back to 1825 and created by the Russian School in the 19th century. Standing at a height of 18.5 cm, this urn-shaped masterpiece depicts a Zaporozhian cossack with remarkable detail and artistry. The reddish-brown body of the vase is adorned with two painted reserves that transport us into different scenes. The first reserve portrays a Zaporozhian cossack taking respite in a lush green field, his rifle and hat resting beside him while his faithful horse grazes in the background. A monument stands proudly on the left side, bearing an inscription expressing gratitude to these brave brothers for their service to Ukraine and Moscow soil. The second reserve presents a picturesque landscape flanked by a tree, revealing a church nestled amidst its beauty along with an adjacent graveyard. A couple strolls along a village road nearby, adding life to this idyllic setting. Both scenes are inscribed in Ukrainian underneath: "Khartitsa - An island in Zaporozhie on the Dniepr" and "From the time of Kii and Oshold to Mazepa, much water from the rich waters of Dniepr passed". With its circular spreading foot featuring rocaille handles and an elongated neck leading up to its gilt rimmed opening, this vase exudes elegance from every angle. This stunning piece now resides within a private collection but continues to captivate viewers with its intricate craftsmanship and historical significance.
