EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Khodynka Field on 18 May 1896" was created by the talented artist Vladimir Yegorovich Makovsky in 1899. Housed in the esteemed State Museum of Revolution in Moscow, this artwork offers a glimpse into a significant moment in Russian history. The image depicts an elaborate scene from the coronation ceremony of Emperor Nicholas II, who reigned over Russia during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The artist's mastery of graphic arts and realism is evident as he skillfully captures the grandeur and nobility surrounding this event. Intriguingly, Khodynka Field serves as the backdrop for this historic occasion. It was at this very location that tragedy struck during the festivities when a stampede occurred, resulting in numerous casualties. This incident came to be known as the Khodynka Tragedy and cast a shadow over what should have been a joyous celebration. Makovsky's color lithograph beautifully portrays not only the splendor of royalty but also hints at the underlying complexities within Russian society at that time. Through his artistry, he immortalizes Emperor Nicholas II while subtly alluding to his eventual fate as Nicholas II would later become known as Nicholas The Martyr. This fine art piece stands as both an exquisite representation of Russian monarchy and an important historical artifact shedding light on one chapter in Russia's rich past.
