EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Olga's Avenge to the Drevlians, 1832" takes us back in time to a significant moment in Russian history. The image showcases an exquisite etching from the private collection of Fyodor Antonovich, a renowned artist of the 19th century. The artwork depicts a scene from the early days of Kievan Rus, where Grand Princess Olga seeks revenge against the treacherous Drevlians. This tale is part of the rich folklore and history that shaped Russia as we know it today. In this neoclassical masterpiece, we witness Olga's determination and strength as she stands tall amidst her people. Her baptism into Christianity symbolizes not only her personal transformation but also marks an important milestone in Russian Christianization. The attention to detail in this graphic art piece transports us back to medieval times when Slavic peoples like Olga fought bravely against their enemies such as Polovtsian tribes and Kipchaks. The Rurik Dynasty and Prince Igor play crucial roles in this historical narrative. As we admire this traditional artwork, let us reflect on how Saint Olga's legacy lives on through Russian Orthodoxy and her contribution to shaping Russia's cultural heritage. This print serves as a reminder of our shared past and invites us to delve deeper into the fascinating history of Ukraine and its connection with Russia during the Middle Ages.
