EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "The heroic deed of a young Man in Kiev in 968" transports us back to the rich history of Russia and Ukraine during the Middle Ages. Created by Boris Artemyevich Chorikov in 1836, this artwork captures a pivotal moment that symbolizes bravery and heroism. In this scene, we witness an extraordinary act performed by a courageous young man amidst the turmoil of war. The artist skillfully portrays the intensity and determination on his face as he faces off against formidable adversaries - the Pechenegs or Patzinaks. These fierce nomadic tribes were known for their aggression towards Slavic peoples. Set against the backdrop of ancient Kiev, capital of Kievan Rus', this image evokes a sense of pride and resilience within Russian history. It reminds us of Sviatoslav I, also known as Sviatoslav the Brave or Svyatoslav I Igorevich, who ruled over Kiev during this period. Chorikov's lithograph beautifully preserves this significant event from early Rus' history. Its inclusion in the collection at Russian State Library in Moscow ensures its preservation for future generations to appreciate and learn from. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are reminded not only of past conflicts but also of humanity's enduring spirit when faced with adversity. This artwork serves as a testament to our collective heritage and honors those who have displayed exceptional courage throughout history.
