EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures a historic moment in Moscow's history - the inauguration of the Monument to Minin and Pozharsky on February 20,1818. This grand parade commemorates Prince Dmitri Pozharsky (1577-1642) and Kouzma Minin (?-1616), two prominent figures who played crucial roles in Russia's liberation from Polish occupation during the Time of Troubles. Painted by Vasili Andreyevich Tropinin (1776-1857), this exquisite artwork showcases his mastery of watercolor and ink techniques. The vibrant colors bring to life the rich cultural heritage of Russian art in the 19th century. In this scene, we see a rider leading a procession through the streets of Moscow. The majestic horse exudes strength and grace as it proudly carries its rider. The atmosphere is filled with excitement as people line the streets, eagerly watching this momentous event unfold. This painting not only tells a story but also serves as a testament to Russia's resilience and determination throughout its history. It reminds us of the sacrifices made by individuals like Minin and Pozharsky, whose bravery shaped their nation's destiny. Preserved in the State Art Museum in Yekaterinburg, Russia, this artwork continues to captivate viewers with its beauty and historical significance. Through Tropinin's skillful brushstrokes, we are transported back in time to witness an important chapter in Moscow's past.
