EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the historical significance of Izborsk, a small town in Russia that holds great cultural and artistic treasures. The focal point of this image is the Truvors Cross, an ancient symbol deeply rooted in Viking history. Housed within the esteemed State Oriental Art Museum in Moscow, this painting depicts a landscape adorned with symbolism from the Middle Ages. The cross itself represents more than just religious devotion; it serves as a testament to the rich heritage of Slavic peoples and their interactions with Vikings during the early Rus period. As one gazes upon this fine art piece created by Nicholas Roerich, they are transported back in time to Velikiy Novgorod, where history unfolds before their eyes. The oil on plywood technique used by Roerich adds depth and texture to his portrayal of Novgorodians and Varangians coexisting harmoniously amidst breathtaking landscapes. This artwork encapsulates not only Russian history but also highlights the influence of Rurik Dynasty and its impact on shaping modern-day Russia. From Varangians to Greeks, each brushstroke tells a story of Sineus, Truvor, Rorik of Dorestad - legendary figures who played pivotal roles during the Viking Age. Through this photo print's vivid colors and meticulous attention to detail, viewers can immerse themselves in an era long gone yet forever etched into our collective memory. As we admire this remarkable piece captured by Fine Art Images' lens, let us appreciate how it preserves our connection
