EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the dramatic scene of "Le grand incendie de Moscou en septembre 1812" (The great fire in Moscow in September 1812). The image, taken by an unknown artist in the 19th century, showcases a pivotal moment in Russian history. During the Russian campaign of 1812, as Napoleon Bonaparte's army approached Moscow, a devastating fire broke out and engulfed the city. This event had significant consequences for both sides involved. The flames ravaged buildings and landmarks, leaving behind a trail of destruction. In this photograph, we witness the chaos and intensity of the inferno that consumed Moscow during that fateful month. The composition highlights the power and magnitude of natural elements at play - with billowing smoke filling the sky and fiery embers illuminating the darkness. Giancarlo Costa skillfully brings this historical moment to life through his expert restoration work on this vintage print. Through his lens, we are transported back to a time when Russia faced immense challenges but ultimately triumphed over adversity. This artwork serves as a poignant reminder of not only Russia's resilience but also its rich history. It stands as a testament to human strength amidst disaster and reminds us how even from ashes can rise new beginnings.
