EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating painting "Tatars are coming! End of XIVth century, 1909" by Vasnetsov takes us back in time to a crucial moment in Russian history. This masterpiece, found in the collection of the Regional Art Museum in Simbirsk, depicts an intense scene filled with anticipation and fear. In this artwork, we witness a cityscape under threat as the Tatar horde approaches. The artist skillfully captures the architectural beauty of the town while emphasizing its vulnerability against invasion. The fine details showcase intricate Russian architecture that stands as a testament to the grandeur of Moscow Principality during this era. Vasnetsov's use of watercolor and coal on paper adds depth and intensity to his depiction of war. The composition is masterful, drawing our eyes towards the menacing figurehead leading the Tataro-Mongols - Khan Tokhtamysh himself. As viewers, we can almost feel their impending presence and hear their thunderous hooves approaching. This historical painting not only highlights Russia's struggle against foreign invaders but also pays homage to Peredvizhniki or "the Wanderers" who sought to capture significant moments from Russian history through art. Through Vasnetsov's brushstrokes, we are transported back to a pivotal period when Mongol dominance was being challenged by Muscovy. "Tatars are coming! End of XIVth century" serves as a visual reminder of Russia's resilience throughout its rich history. It is an extraordinary piece that invites us to reflect
