Peter I the Great was a visionary leader who left an indelible mark on Russia's history. In his quest for modernization and progress, he faced numerous challenges and embarked on various endeavors that shaped his legacy. One notable event in Peter's life was his involvement in the Rebellion of the Old Believers in the Palace of Facets during the late 18th century. This anonymous artwork captures the intensity and drama of that moment, showcasing Peter's determination to assert his authority. Another symbol of Peter's reign is seen in the digitally restored reproduction of a 19th-century original - the Crown of Tsar Peter I. This exquisite piece represents not only regal splendor but also serves as a testament to Peter's ambition and grandeur. Catherine I, Peter's wife, played a significant role in supporting him throughout his rule. The litho depicting Catherine urging him to write emphasizes her belief that documenting their actions would secure their salvation. Peter had an insatiable thirst for knowledge and innovation, evident from his visit to learn about shipbuilding in the Netherlands depicted in an engraving from 1697. His willingness to explore foreign lands demonstrates his commitment to transforming Russia into a maritime power. The Monument of Peter the Great stands tall as a tribute to this influential ruler. Painted with watercolors by an artist in 1895, it immortalizes Peter's contributions while reminding us of St Petersburg's founding under his guidance. Before ascending to power herself, Catherine I was taken prisoner in Marienburg before being ceded to Princess Menshikov. This lithograph highlights her journey towards becoming one of Russia's most prominent empresses underpinned by resilience and fortitude. During another visit to the Netherlands between 1716-1717, we witness how Peter continued expanding his knowledge base through interactions with foreign experts. These encounters were crucial for implementing reforms back home that would shape Russia into what it is today.
