To the Peoples of the Caucasus,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a powerful and evocative chromolithograph by Russian artist Dmitriy Stakhievich Moor, was created in 1920 during the tumultuous period of Soviet history. Published by the Literary Education Department of the Revolutionary Military Council of the Republic in Moscow, this image is also known by its alternative title, "Narodam Kavkaza." The print depicts a group of civilians, both male and female, gathered around a horse and two horses pulling a cart. The figures, dressed in traditional Caucasian clothing, are gazing up at a man on horseback, who is identified as Dmitri Orlov, an American relief administrator. Orlov is shown extending his hand in a gesture of goodwill and support towards the people of the Caucasus, a region located in Asia between the Black and Caspian Seas. The stunning use of color and intricate detail in this lithograph, produced using the lithotint technique, brings the scene to life and captures the essence of the historical moment. The geographical feature of the Caucasus Mountains is prominently featured in the background, emphasizing the connection between the people and their land. This print is an important historical artifact, reflecting the complex political and social landscape of the early Soviet era. It is a testament to the human spirit and the enduring power of compassion and solidarity, as represented by the outstretched hand of Dmitri Orlov. The manuscripts and archives division of libraries and institutions hold valuable records and images like this one, preserving the rich heritage of human history for future generations.
