EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving depicts the historic moment when Empress Catherine II of Russia, also known as Catherine the Great, read out her Proclamation to the people of Moscow in 1762. Catherine, who ruled from 1762 until her death in 1796, was a key figure in Russian history and is remembered for her significant reforms that modernized the Russian state and expanded its territory. In this image, Catherine is shown in regal attire, seated on a throne, surrounded by Russian nobility and officials, as she reads aloud from a scroll. The proclamation, which was issued in the aftermath of her coup against her husband Peter III, outlined her plans for political and social reforms, including the establishment of new institutions and the promotion of social equality. The engraving, produced in Europe during Catherine's reign, is a testament to the European influence on Russian culture and the widespread interest in the political developments in Russia during this period. With its intricate details and bold lines, this horizontal engraving captures the grandeur and importance of the event, making it a valuable historical document and an intriguing work of art.
