EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of winter in 19th century Moscow, Russia. The troika sled, a traditional Russian horse-drawn vehicle, glides gracefully through the snow-covered streets. The artist Gillot skillfully portrays the elegance and speed of this iconic mode of transportation. The scene is set against a backdrop of magnificent buildings, showcasing the architectural beauty that Moscow is renowned for. The entrance gate adds an air of grandeur to the image, inviting us to imagine what lies beyond. In this wintry setting, we see a diverse group of people enjoying their journey on the troika sled. A female passenger sits comfortably inside while a male driver expertly guides the horses with precision and control. Both men and women are captivated by this exhilarating experience as they traverse along the lane. The vibrant colors bring life to this snapshot from history, reminding us of how vivid and dynamic even everyday scenes could be during that time period. This print not only transports us back to 1890s Russia but also showcases L Boulanger's meticulous attention to detail in documenting Russian dress and customs. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of artistry by Gillot and Boulanger, we can't help but appreciate their ability to capture both the beauty of nature in winter and the cultural significance embodied by such an iconic form of transportation - truly a testament to their artistic prowess.
