EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable scene from the Radziwill Chronicle, dating back to the 15th century. The anonymous artist skillfully captures the historical moment when Askold and Dir approach Rurik, seeking his permission to embark on a journey to Constantinople. This illuminated manuscript, found in the esteemed collection of the Library of the Russian Academy of Sciences in St. Petersburg, offers us a glimpse into medieval Ukraine and Russia. The image is rich with symbolism and cultural significance. It transports us back to Velikiy Novgorod during the Middle Ages, where Slavic peoples thrived under Kievan Rus rule. The fine art watercolour on parchment beautifully depicts this pivotal event in Russian history. As we delve deeper into this masterpiece, we are reminded of Novgorod's grandeur as one of Russia's most influential cities at that time. The Varangians or Varyags played an essential role in early Rus history, and their presence is palpable within this artwork. Through this mesmerizing piece, we witness not only an artistic achievement but also a connection to our past—a testament to how illuminated art can preserve stories for generations to come. Let us marvel at its intricate details and appreciate its contribution to our understanding of medieval times and the fascinating world of Rurikids' reign over Novgorod.
