EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - the Terrestrial Globe from 1720. Housed in the prestigious Collection of State Hermitage in St. Petersburg, this exquisite wooden object is a testament to the fine art and craftsmanship of its time. The globe, crafted with precision and attention to detail, represents an era when monarchies ruled supreme. Its metal accents and delicate paper markings depict the vast territories under various royal reigns, including that of Peter the Great, one of Russia's most influential tsars. As we gaze at this image, we are transported back to a time when pigeons were used as messengers between rulers and their subjects. The presence of a pigeon perched atop this magnificent globe adds an element of whimsy and reminds us that even amidst grandeur, nature finds its place. Jean (1654-1739), the talented artist behind this masterpiece, has left his mark on Russian history through his applied arts creations. This particular work serves as a visual representation not only of Peter I Alexeyevich's reign but also reflects upon the opulence and power associated with Russian monarchy during that period. Preserved within the walls of State Hermitage Museum today, this photograph allows us to appreciate both its artistic value and historical significance. It stands as a reminder of our rich past while inspiring future generations to explore further into Russia's intriguing history.
