EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the majestic River Neva, flowing towards Yassilievsky Island in Leningrad during the 20th century. The river, originating from Lake Ladoga and meandering through the western part of Leningrad Oblast before reaching the Neva Bay of the Gulf of Finland, holds immense historical significance. It has witnessed pivotal events such as the Battle of the Neva in 1240, which earned Alexander Nevsky his name, and endured the harrowing Siege of Leningrad by German forces during World War II. The image showcases a wintry scene with frozen waters reflecting sunlight that pierces through an overcast sky. The urban skyline stands tall on both sides of this icy expanse, blending seamlessly with nature's frozen beauty. This photograph not only encapsulates a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to Russia's rich history and geographical allure. Artist CM Dixon masterfully captured this landscape's essence, highlighting its cold yet enchanting atmosphere. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported to Saint Petersburg (formerly known as Petrograd or Leningrad), where Vasilyevsky Island proudly stands amidst one of Europe's largest rivers. With its scientific undertones encompassing concepts like geography and astronomy within its frame, this print is more than just an artistic representation; it becomes a window into Russia's past and present. Let us cherish this visual treasure that connects us to our heritage while reminding us of nature's
