This historical masterpiece, now housed in the prestigious Russian State Library in Moscow, transports us back to a pivotal moment during the Great Northern War. The print vividly depicts the intense battle scene as Peter I's forces lay siege to Vyborg.

Through this masterful piece, he immortalizes not only the events but also pays homage to those who fought bravely during this historic siege. This print stands as an invaluable artifact of Russian art from the 18th century—a window into both history and artistic excellence.
