EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting city of Velikiy Novgorod in 1656, as depicted in Adam Olearius' renowned book "Travels to the Great Duke of Muscovy and the King of Persia". The anonymous artist skillfully captures the essence of this medieval Russian city, transporting us to a bygone era. The image showcases the picturesque landscape surrounding Velikiy Novgorod, with Lake Ladoga shimmering in the background. This ancient city holds a significant place in Russian history as one of the most important centers during Kievan Rus. Its rich cultural heritage is evident through its architectural marvels and historical significance. As we gaze upon this copper engraving, we are reminded of Novgorod's glorious past as a bustling republic. It was here that Slavic peoples and Varangians coexisted harmoniously, shaping early Rus civilization. The Republic of Novgorod flourished economically and politically under self-governance, leaving an indelible mark on Russian history. The artwork invites us to explore every intricate detail: from Staraya Ladoga's distant silhouette to the vibrant streets filled with Novgorodian life. We can almost imagine ourselves strolling through these ancient thoroughfares, witnessing daily life unfold before our eyes. This fine art print serves as a window into both Russia's past and our collective human history. It reminds us how cities like Velikiy Novgorod have shaped civilizations throughout time – their stories
