EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a portrait of Emperor Peter the Great of Russia, taken in 1933. The unknown creator beautifully captures the essence of this influential figure who reigned from 1672 to 1725. Known for his ambitious mission to modernize and Europeanize Russia, Peter the Great sought to transform his country socially, economically, and militarily while establishing it as a formidable maritime power. The photograph also features an intriguing black page miniature painting made around 1720 by Gustav von Mardefeld. This artwork is part of "Gestalten Der Weltgeschichte" a book containing cigarette-card portrait miniatures that depict prominent figures from world history spanning four centuries. In this image, we see Emperor Peter the Great with a black page beside him, symbolizing his authority and power. The young boy depicted in the painting represents servitude and loyalty towards the emperor's reign. The composition exudes both grandeur and condescension as Peter I confidently pats the head of his servant. This historical piece provides us with a glimpse into seventeenth-century Russia during its transformation under Peter's rule. It serves as a testament to his enduring legacy as one of Russia's most significant leaders and highlights Germany's appreciation for historical figures through their inclusion in cigarette-card collections like this one from 1933.
