EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historical city of Astrakhan as depicted by the talented artist Jan Jansz. Struys in 1675. The artwork, titled "Astrakhan (From: Drie aanmerkelyke reizen)", is a fine example of Holland's Baroque style and offers a glimpse into the past. The image features a majestic frigate sailing through the waters, representing an era when warships were considered symbols of power and dominance. This copper engraving beautifully captures the essence of Russian naval force during that time, with intricate details showcasing every aspect of this magnificent vessel. Astrakhan itself is brought to life through meticulous attention to detail, portraying its rich history and cultural significance. The city was known for its strategic location on the Volga River and played a vital role in trade routes between Europe and Asia. Preserved within the collection of Universiteitsbibliotheek Nijmegen, this artwork serves as a testament to both artistic skill and historical documentation. It allows us to appreciate not only Struys' talent but also gain insight into Russia's naval prowess during this period. As we admire this remarkable piece, let us delve into history's depths while marveling at how art can transport us back in time.
