EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Saint George Standard of the Cavalry" from 1879, a remarkable piece of artistry by Flags, Banners and Standards. Housed in the prestigious State Hermitage collection in St. Petersburg, this historical artifact offers a glimpse into Russian military history. The image transports us back to the Russo-Turkish War (1877-1878), an intense conflict between Russia and the Ottoman Empire. The standard represents a symbol of pride for the Russian army during this period, as they fought valiantly on Balkan soil. It serves as a testament to their unwavering commitment to pan-Slavism and their offensive against Ottoman forces. The intricately designed banner features Saint George slaying a dragon, embodying courage and victory in battle. Its vibrant colors and meticulous craftsmanship highlight its significance within Imperial Russian Army ranks. As we admire this fine art representation captured through photography, it is impossible not to reflect upon the rich history that surrounds it. This photograph allows us to delve deeper into objects that shaped Russia's past while shedding light on pivotal moments such as the Russo-Turkish War.
