EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic moment of "The baptism of the residents of Kiev in 988". Created by renowned artist Klavdi Vasilyevich Lebedev (1852-1916), this artwork beautifully depicts a significant event in traditional Christianity and Ukrainian history. The scene showcases the christening ceremony that marked the conversion of Kievan Rus to Orthodox Christianity under the rule of Grand Prince Vladimir, also known as Vladimir the Great. Lebedev's graphic artistry brings to life this pivotal moment from the Middle Ages, where Slavic peoples embraced their new faith. The composition portrays a sense of reverence and awe as residents gather around for their baptism, symbolizing their spiritual transformation. This historical painting is part of a private collection and belongs to a series created by Lebedev called "The Wanderers" or "Peredvizhniki" who sought to depict Russian history through fine art images. "The Baptism of the residents of Kiev in 988" serves as an important reminder not only of Ukraine's rich cultural heritage but also its deep connection with Russia. It highlights Saint Vladimir's role as a statesman and ruler who played a crucial role in shaping Russian Orthodoxy. Through vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail, Lebedev's lithograph transports viewers back in time, allowing them to witness this monumental event firsthand. This print stands as both an artistic masterpiece and an invaluable historical document that celebrates the Christianization or Christianisation process that forever changed Russia's course.
