EDITORS COMMENTS
The print of "Sviatopolk the Accursed. 1019 (From Illustrated Karamzin), 1836" captures a significant moment in Russian history. Created by artist Boris Artemyevich Chorikov, this lithograph depicts Sviatopolk I of Kiev, also known as Sviatopolk the Accursed, who ruled during the Middle Ages. Sviatopolk I was a member of the Rurik dynasty and played a crucial role in the complex political landscape of Kievan Rus. The image showcases his regal presence and power as he sits on his throne, surrounded by symbols of authority. This artwork sheds light on an era when Slavic peoples were establishing their identity and shaping the future of Russia and Ukraine. It reminds us of Vladimir the Great's reign and his efforts to unite these lands under one ruler. The historical context surrounding Sviatopolk I is fascinating; he was both admired for his military victories and despised for his ruthless actions against family members, earning him the epithet "the Accursed". This intriguing mix of power, ambition, and controversy makes Sviatopolk I an enigmatic figure worth exploring further. Preserved in the collection of Russian State Library in Moscow, this lithograph provides us with a glimpse into early Rus history through Chorikov's artistic interpretation. Its intricate details invite viewers to delve deeper into this period that laid foundations for modern-day Russia.
