EDITORS COMMENTS
The Metropolitan genuflects at the coronation ceremony of Tsar Alexander II, Moscow, 1856. This lithograph by Georg Wilhelm Timm captures a momentous event in Russian history - the coronation of Emperor Alexander II and Empress Maria Alexandrovna. The grandeur and significance of this occasion are beautifully depicted in this print. The scene unfolds within the resplendent walls of the Dormition Cathedral in the Moscow Kremlin. Bathed in warm lighting from majestic chandeliers, a congregation gathers to witness the religious ceremony. At its center stands The Metropolitan, an esteemed figure of authority within the Russian Orthodox Church, bowing reverently before Tsar Alexander II. This image is not merely a portrayal of pageantry and opulence; it symbolizes the deep intertwining between religion and monarchy during that era. The Romanov dynasty's rule is palpable as they ascend to their thrones amidst a sea of loyal subjects. Every detail has been meticulously captured - from intricate architectural elements to vibrant colors that bring life to this historical moment frozen in time. It serves as a testament to both artistic skill and cultural importance. Preserved within the State Museum of History in Moscow, this lithograph allows us to glimpse into Russia's past with awe-inspiring clarity. It invites contemplation on power dynamics, faith, and tradition while showcasing Timm's mastery as an artist.
