EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph captures Filaret Drozdov, the Metropolitan of Moscow, along with his three sons. Published in 1878 as part of El Mundo en la Mano or The World in Your Hands, this print showcases the influential figure in the Russian Orthodox Church and his close-knit family. In this portrait, Filaret Drozdov sits at the center, exuding wisdom and authority. His long beard and traditional clerical robes symbolize his esteemed position within the clergy. Standing beside him are his three sons, each displaying their own unique presence. Together, they form a powerful representation of lineage and heritage. The image radiates a sense of strength and unity as father and sons stand side by side. Their full-length figures emphasize their stature both physically and metaphorically within society. Despite their individuality, there is an undeniable bond that unites them. Filaret Drozdov's influence extended far beyond familial ties; he was considered one of the most significant figures in Russian Orthodoxy during his time. This lithograph serves as a testament to his legacy—a man who dedicated himself to faith while nurturing strong family connections. Preserved through time in a private collection, this historic print offers viewers a glimpse into an era when religion played a central role in shaping societal values. It invites us to reflect on the enduring power of family bonds intertwined with religious devotion—an image that continues to resonate even today.
