EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Strelets on the Moscow Kremlin tower at Moonlit Night, 1890s" by Nikolai Sergeyevich Matveyev transports us back to a time of grandeur and mystery. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke, as he masterfully captures the ethereal beauty of a moonlit night. The scene depicts the iconic Moscow Kremlin tower bathed in the soft glow of moonlight, casting long shadows across the ancient walls. It evokes a sense of tranquility and serenity amidst the bustling city below. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported to a bygone era when Russia was ruled by tsars and nobility reigned supreme. The painting serves as a window into Russian history, specifically during the time known as "the Time of Troubles". It reminds us of Ivan IV, also known as Ivan the Terrible, who established his power through his loyal troops called Strelets. These palace guardsmen were an integral part of maintaining order within Moscow's grand duchy. Matveyev's use of oil on canvas brings depth and richness to this genre piece. Each stroke seems to capture not only historical accuracy but also emotion and atmosphere that can be felt even today. This fine art image found in the collection of State Central M. Glinka Museum of Music in Moscow is truly a treasure worth cherishing for its historical significance and artistic brilliance.
