EDITORS COMMENTS
Volga Svyatoslavich and Mikula Selyaninovich, 1940. Artist: Bilibin, Ivan Yakovlevich (1876-1942) In this print by Ivan Yakovlevich Bilibin, we are transported to the realm of fantasy and superstition. The artwork depicts two legendary figures from Ukrainian folklore - Volga Svyatoslavich and Mikula Selyaninovich. Mounted on a majestic horse, Volga stands tall in his armor, embodying the ideals of a knightly ruler. His presence exudes power and authority as he gazes into the distance with determination. By his side is Mikula, a hero known for his strength and bravery. Bilibin's masterful use of color lithography brings this old Russian legend to life with vibrant hues that evoke magic and enchantment. The detailed book design showcases the artist's skill in capturing every intricate element of Slavic mythology. The image serves as an allegory for good versus evil, symbolizing the eternal struggle between light and darkness within Russian fairy tales. It transports us back to the Middle Ages when epic poetry and legends shaped the cultural identity of Slavic peoples. As we admire this fine art piece found in the collection of Moscow's Museum of Goznak, we are reminded of Russia's rich history rooted in mythologies passed down through generations. Bilibin's work not only celebrates these ancient tales but also preserves them for future generations to appreciate.
