EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in Russian history at the end of the 19th century. The anonymous artist skillfully depicts Prince Alexander Nevsky, a revered saint and statesman, pleading for mercy from Batu Khan, the ruler of the Mongol Horde. The image showcases the tense encounter between these two powerful figures amidst an invasion that threatened Russia's sovereignty. The graphic arts technique used in this chromolithography brings to life the intricate details of their armor and attire, transporting us back to the Middle Ages. It serves as a visual reminder of the struggles faced by Slavic peoples during this tumultuous period. The historical context surrounding this scene is rich with significance. It references key events such as Vladimir's rule over Novgorod, conflicts with Teutonic Knights, and battles on Lake Peipus and Neva. This print also alludes to Rurikid dynasty's influence on Russian history and highlights Alexander Nevsky's role as Grand Prince of Vladimir and Novgorod. Preserved in the collection of Russian State Library in Moscow, this fine art piece offers a glimpse into Russia's past while honoring its national heroes. It reminds us of both resilience against foreign invasions and diplomacy amid political turmoil. Through its evocative imagery, this print invites viewers to reflect upon Russia's complex relationship with Mongols during their conquests known as Tataro-Mongol Yoke or Golden Horde era.
