EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "True picture of the Cat of the Tsar Alexis I Mikhailovich of Russia" offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of Russian monarchy during the Baroque era. Created by Wenceslaus Hollar, a renowned graphic artist, this print showcases an exquisite portrayal of both power and grace. In this artwork, we see a regal monarch seated on his ornate throne with his loyal feline companion by his side. The cat's presence adds an intriguing touch to this historical depiction, symbolizing loyalty and companionship in a way that only animals can convey. The grandeur and opulence surrounding Tsar Alexis I Mikhailovich are evident in every intricate detail captured by Hollar's skilled hand. From the elaborate attire worn by both ruler and pet to the majestic setting within Moscow's Kremlin, it is clear that no expense was spared in showcasing their noble status. As we delve deeper into Russian history through this lithograph, we gain insight into not just one man but also an entire dynasty – the House of Romanov. This image serves as a reminder of their reign over Muscovy and later Russia itself. Preserved within the collection of Russian State Library in Moscow, this fine art piece stands as a testament to centuries past. It invites us to explore our fascination with aristocracy while appreciating Hollar's talent for capturing such significant moments from history.
