EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures Anastasia Bitsenko, a Soviet delegate, en route to the historic peace negotiations at Brest-Litovsk on March 3, 1918. The Treaty of Brest-Litovsk marked the end of Russia's involvement in World War One, with the Central Powers, led by Germany, securing significant territorial gains. Bitsenko, also spelled Biecenko and Bizenko, was a remarkable figure in Russian history. In 1905, she had assassinated former War Minister Viktor Sakharov in protest of his role in the brutal suppression of the 1905 Revolution. Despite the gravity of her actions, she was sentenced to imprisonment rather than death. As a delegate, Bitsenko represented the new Bolshevik regime, which had come to power following the October Revolution in 1917. Her presence at the negotiations signified the Soviet Union's determination to assert its sovereignty on the international stage. Dressed in a simple yet elegant outfit, Bitsenko sits in the back of a motor car, seemingly deep in thought as the vehicle makes its way to the peace talks. The image is a poignant reminder of the tumultuous political landscape of early 20th century Russia and the complexities of the peace process following the First World War.
