EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the elegance and charm of Russian carriages during the late 18th to early 19th centuries. The image, captured through a combination of copper engraving and watercolor techniques, transports us back in time to witness the beauty of these horse-drawn vehicles. In the foreground, we see two distinct types of carriages: the Droshky and Kibitka. The Droshky, with its open design and lightweight structure, was commonly used for short trips within cities. Its simplicity is juxtaposed by the grandeur of the Kibitka - a larger carriage adorned with intricate details that exude opulence. The coachman stands proudly beside his carriage, dressed in traditional attire that reflects his role as both driver and caretaker of this magnificent mode of transportation. With whip in hand, he is ready to embark on a journey through picturesque landscapes or bustling city streets. The artist behind this exquisite piece is Friedrich Dürfeldt (1765-1827), a German graphic arts master known for his attention to detail and ability to capture architectural elements flawlessly. This particular artwork exemplifies neoclassical influences prevalent during that era. Now preserved in a private collection, this fine art print serves as an invaluable historical document showcasing not only Russia's rich cultural heritage but also highlighting the craftsmanship involved in creating these horse-drawn sleighs and carriages. It invites viewers to appreciate both their aesthetic appeal and their significance as symbols of status and luxury during this
