EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving depicts Catherine I of Russia (1684-1727), the second wife of Peter the Great (1672-1725) and the first Empress of Russia, riding in her magnificent Great Sled during the harsh Russian winter. The image, created in the 18th century, captures the essence of Catherine's reign as an absolute monarch, a time of stability and prosperity for the Russian people. Born as Marta Samuilovna Skavronskaya, Catherine was the daughter of a Lithuanian nobleman. She came to Russia as a servant girl and, through her intelligence, beauty, and cunning, caught the eye of Peter the Great. They married in 1712, and Catherine bore him several children, including the future Empress Elizabeth. Catherine's reign, which began after Peter's death in 1725, was marked by her efforts to consolidate her power and promote Russian culture. She was a patron of the arts and sciences, and her court was known for its extravagance and luxury. The Great Sled, with its ornate decorations and warm furs, was a symbol of Catherine's wealth and power. It allowed her to travel throughout the vast Russian Empire, maintaining control over her vast territories and ensuring the loyalty of her subjects. This engraving, with its vibrant colors and intricate details, offers a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of Catherine's reign. It is a reminder of the complex and fascinating history of the Romanov dynasty and the absolute monarchy that ruled Russia for centuries.
