The image is taken from Bulychev's album "A journey across eastern Siberia: Part 1, Trip to Kamchatka," compiled in the late 19th century.

This collection, now housed in the Prints Division of the National Library of Russia, offers a vivid glimpse into the historic journey across Siberia and the Russian Far East. The print depicts a close-up view of the sledges, their harnesses and runners, and the intricate patterns of the provisions carefully stacked on them. The sledges, essential for transportation in the harsh Siberian climate, symbolize the meeting of frontiers and the spirit of exploration.
