EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th century print depicts the Kutaisi Province in present-day Georgia, as it appeared during the Russian Empire in 1856. The image on the front showcases the unique blend of natural and architectural wonders that defined this region. The verdant landscape is dotted with quaint houses, while the foreground reveals the ruins of a castle or fortification, possibly a remnant of the ancient city of Kolchis. In the background, the majestic Rion River flows, meeting the Black Sea at the coast. The province's rich history is reflected in its numerous churches, such as the one seen in the center, which represents the predominant influence of Christianity in the region. The reverse side of the card is adorned with an intricate map of the province, the provincial seal, and valuable information about the population and local costume of the inhabitants. The text is written in Russian, adding to the historical allure of this memento. The postal service markings on the bottom edge suggest that this card was once part of a souvenir set of 82 illustrated cards, one for each province of the Russian Empire. This charming artifact offers a glimpse into the past, inviting us to explore the diverse cultures, histories, economies, and geographies that make up the rich tapestry of the Russian Empire during the 1850s.
