EDITORS COMMENTS
This image, titled 'Village Sorcerer in the Ural Area. Village of Novoabdulino, 1904,' is a pencil drawing by the Russian artist Boris Vasilievich Smirnov. Smirnov created this work while on a journey across Siberia in 1904, having been transported as a prisoner from western Russia. The drawing depicts an intriguing figure of a man, dressed in traditional clothing, standing outside a log cabin. He is adorned with a long, flowing beard and wears a cape and a hat, while holding a walking stick and a cat in one hand. The man's piercing gaze and the mysterious aura surrounding him suggest that he may be a village sorcerer or healer. The exterior of the cabin, with its wooden doors and simple doorway, adds to the rustic setting of the scene. The presence of cats around the man further emphasizes the connection between the natural world and the supernatural beliefs of the rural community. Smirnov's masterful use of pencil on paper captures the essence of the man and the environment, providing a glimpse into the rich heritage and folklore of rural Russia during the early 20th century. This drawing is now part of the Novosibirsk State Museum of Regional History and Folklife collection in Russia, and is a testament to Smirnov's remarkable ability to capture the meeting of frontiers between the natural world, the supernatural, and the human spirit.
