EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Wedding" takes us back in time to the rich traditions and festivities of old Russia. Created by Christian Lorenzen Rothgiesser, this illustration is part of Adam Olearius' renowned book "Travels to the Great Duke of Muscovy and the King of Persia". In this scene, we witness a joyous celebration filled with love, laughter, and cultural significance. The wedding party is adorned in exquisite traditional dresses that reflect the grandeur and elegance of Russian folklore. Each intricate detail showcases the craftsmanship and attention to detail prevalent during Domostroy times. As we delve into Russian history through this artwork, we are transported to Moscow's ancient past - a time when it was known as Moscovy or the Grand Duchy of Moscow. This image provides a glimpse into the vibrant social fabric that existed within these historical realms. The artist's use of copper engraving brings depth and richness to every element portrayed in this fine art piece. The baroque style adds an extra layer of opulence, capturing both our eyes and imaginations. This print from a private collection serves as a testament to how art can preserve moments from centuries ago for future generations to appreciate. It reminds us not only of Russia's fascinating history but also celebrates family ties, tradition, and feasts that have stood the test of time across cultures worldwide.
