EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning lithograph by C. Schultz, titled "Imperial Stables, Petrodvorets, c. 1820," offers a captivating glimpse into the grandeur of Imperial Russia during the 19th century. The print depicts the impressive exterior of the Imperial Stables in Petrodvorets, a suburb of St. Petersburg, Russia. The stables, which were built between 1817 and 1820 under the orders of Emperor Alexander I, were designed to house the horses and carriages used by the Imperial Court. The meticulously detailed image showcases the intricate architectural designs of the stables, with their arched windows, intricate stonework, and ornate columns. The fawn tint on the ivory wove paper adds an elegant and timeless quality to the print, while the black lines provide a striking contrast. The scene is further enlivened by the depiction of several horses and their handlers, adding a sense of movement and activity to the otherwise still image. The presence of the animals also serves as a reminder of the important role they played in the daily life of the Imperial Court. The print was created by the German artist, C. Schultz, who was known for his detailed and accurate depictions of Russian architecture and landscapes. It is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Russia during this period, when Christianity, European influences, and Russian traditions intermingled to create a unique and distinctive artistic style. Today, this beautiful lithograph is part of the permanent collection of the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to inspire and captivate visitors from around the world. The print serves as a reminder of the beauty and grandeur of Imperial Russia, and the enduring power of art to transport us to another time and place.
