Allegory of the Triune Russian Nation
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating color lithograph created by the Russian artist Dmitry Philippovich Sharapov in 1914. This intriguing work of art, now a cherished piece in a private collection, offers a rich exploration of the mythological and historical dimensions of the Russian Empire and its diverse peoples. At the heart of the composition lies the allegorical representation of the "Triune Russian Nation," symbolizing the unity of the Great Russian, White Russian (Belarusian), and Little Russian (Ukrainian) peoples. The image features three female figures, each embodying the essence of one of the three Slavic tribes. The Great Russian woman, depicted in red, stands in the center, symbolizing the strength and power of the Russian heartland. To her left, the White Russian woman, dressed in white, represents the wisdom and calmness of the Belarusian people. On her right, the Little Russian woman, dressed in blue, symbolizes the fertility and vitality of the Ukrainian lands. The allegory is further enhanced by the presence of various mythological and historical figures, including Saint Vladimir, the patron saint of Russia, and the legendary prince Igor of Kiev. The background is adorned with images of Russian cities, churches, and landscapes, emphasizing the rich cultural heritage of the Russian Empire. Sharapov's masterful use of color and composition in this work of art reflects the deep connection between the Russian people and their land, as well as the complex historical and cultural ties that bind the various Slavic tribes together. This postcard, a testament to the rich artistic and historical legacy of the Russian Empire, continues to inspire and intrigue viewers a century after its creation.
