Magistratskaia Street on a Moonlit Evening,
EDITORS COMMENTS
an exquisite oil painting by Pavel Mikhailovich Kosharov, captures the enchanting atmosphere of a Siberian city during the late 19th century. The painting, part of a collection showcasing various aspects of Siberian life, is a testament to the rich heritage of Russian art. Set against the backdrop of a star-studded night sky, the moon casts a gentle glow over the quiet Magistratskaia Street. The buildings, illuminated by the soft lunar light, stand proudly, their dark silhouettes contrasting against the snowy landscape. Horse-drawn vehicles and sleighs, the primary mode of transportation during this era, add to the scene's authenticity. Men in traditional Russian attire gather around, deep in conversation, their faces illuminated by the flickering lanterns. The painting, created in 1899, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when science and education were making their way into the remote corners of the Russian empire. The Congressional Library and National Research Tomsk State University are proud to preserve this masterpiece, which beautifully encapsulates the meeting of frontiers, the fusion of the old and the new, and the unique character of Siberia. The use of oil on card enhances the painting's texture and depth, making the scene appear even more lifelike. The painting's title, "La Soiree" or "The Evening Gathering," invites us to pause and appreciate the simple pleasures of life, as we are transported back in time to this magical moment in Siberian history.
