The Moscow Principality, a captivating chapter in Russian history, is brought to life through various artistic depictions. One such artwork portrays Stephen Bathory at Pskov, showcasing the influential figure's presence during this period. Another masterpiece by Boris Vasilievich Zvorykin titled "Boris Godunov and his Family" offers a glimpse into the lives of prominent individuals from 1927. Russian icon artist Metropolitan Theognostus of Kiev contributes to our understanding of this era with his early 20th-century creation. Meanwhile, Boris Artemyevich Chorikov's painting "The Marriage of Ivan III and Sophia Palaiologina" transports us back to the year 1472. Illustrations from Christian Lorenzen Rothgiesser's "Travels to the Great Duke of Muscovy" shed light on cities like Samara, Tsaritsyn, and Kozmodemyansk during that time. Appolinari Mikhaylovich Vasnetsov's depiction of Moscow in the 14th century showcases its wooden cityscape. "The Antiquities of the Russian State" provides insight into weaponry with Pernach and two shestopyors featured prominently. Moving forward in time, we witness bookshops lining Christ the Saviour Bridge in early 1920s Moscow as captured by Vasnetsov. Vasnetsov also immortalizes The All Saints Bridge during this period while another piece showcases The Print Yard on Nikolskaya Street. A map dating back to 1914 reveals Russia's territorial extent during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. Lastly, we delve into historical events with mention of Novgorod's fall—an event that shaped Moscow Principality’s destiny forevermore. Through these diverse artworks and references spanning different eras within Moscow Principality’s timeline, we gain valuable insights into its rich heritage and pivotal moments that have shaped Russia as we know it today.
