EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a glimpse into the fascinating world of falconry during the 17th century in Moscow. The image, taken from "The Grand Ducal, Tsarist and Imperial Hunting in Russia" book published in 1902, showcases Falconers at the Amusement court of Moscow. In this mesmerizing scene, we witness the convergence of history, mythology, and artistry as noble falconers showcase their mastery over these majestic birds. With their regal attire and poised demeanors, they embody the nobility and aristocracy that defined Russian monarchy during this era. The photograph transports us back to a time when hunting was not just a sport but also an integral part of royal life. It offers a window into the opulent lifestyle enjoyed by rulers such as Alexei Mikhailovich and his predecessors from the House of Romanov. The chromolithography technique used to reproduce this image adds depth and vibrancy to every detail captured by Klavdi Vasilyevich Lebedev's lens. From the intricate patterns on their garments to each feather on the falcons' wings, every aspect is meticulously brought to life. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of history preserved within a private collection today, it serves as a reminder of Russia's rich cultural heritage and its enduring fascination with both nature and power.
