Krusnaya Place, Moscow, c1890 - A Glimpse into Russia's Rich History
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the enchanting city of Moscow in the late 19th century. Standing at Krusnaya Place, we are treated to a breathtaking view of Red Square adorned with architectural marvels that have become iconic symbols of Russia. To the right stands the majestic Kremlin, its grandeur commanding attention as it overlooks the square. In the distance, St Basil's Cathedral rises like a fairytale castle with its vibrant domes adding splashes of color against an otherwise monochrome landscape. At the heart of this scene is a remarkable statue paying tribute to Citizen Minin and Prince Pozharski. These valiant leaders led an army that successfully recaptured Moscow and expelled Polish invaders during a tumultuous period known as the Time of Troubles. This monument serves as a reminder of their heroic deeds and resilience. The Russian word "krasnaya" meaning both red and beautiful, perfectly encapsulates this image. The beauty lies not only in the stunning architecture but also in how it represents Russia's rich history and cultural heritage. As we gaze upon this engraving from Robert Brown's collection "The Countries of the World" published by Cassell in London & Paris around 1890, we are transported back in time. It allows us to appreciate not just individual landmarks but also their collective significance within Moscow's urban tapestry.
