EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a significant piece of history - the first map of the Moscow subway, opened on May 15,1935. The anonymous master behind this remarkable cartography work in 1935 has left an indelible mark on the world of graphic arts and fine art images. This colour lithography masterpiece is now part of a private collection, serving as a testament to the rich history and cultural significance of Russia's capital city. The creation of this map coincided with the ambitious five-year plan implemented by the USSR during that time period. It symbolizes not only technological progress but also represents a milestone in urban development and transportation infrastructure. The Moscow metro, affectionately known as "Muscovite underground railways" became an integral part of daily life for millions, connecting various parts of this bustling metropolis. As we gaze upon this vintage print, we are transported back to an era when subways were still novel and awe-inspiring. The intricate details and vibrant colors used by the anonymous master bring alive each station stop along these underground tracks. This photograph serves as a reminder that beyond its utilitarian purpose, public transportation can be elevated to an art form itself. It captures both nostalgia for days gone by and admiration for human ingenuity in creating such impressive engineering marvels. Let us cherish this rare glimpse into history preserved within this private collection – a visual representation of how far we have come since that momentous day in 1935 when Muscovites embarked on their inaugural journey
