EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Near Ostrovno on August 1,1812" takes us back to the early 19th century during a tumultuous time in European history. Created by the talented artist Faber du Faur, this piece showcases his mastery of graphic arts and fine art images. The scene depicts a crucial moment during the Napoleonic Wars, specifically Napoleon Bonaparte's invasion of Russia. The lithograph beautifully captures the intensity and chaos of war as Russian and French troops clash near Ostrovno. The watercolour technique adds depth and emotion to the composition, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in this historical event. As we gaze at this artwork housed in the State Borodino War and History Museum in Moscow, we are reminded of the bravery displayed by soldiers on both sides. It serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during coalition wars and highlights an important chapter known as the Patriotic War or Russian Campaign. Notably, General Mikhail Kutuzov emerges as a central figure within this piece. His strategic brilliance is evident as he leads his troops against Napoleon's forces with unwavering determination. This image pays tribute to Kutuzov's pivotal role in defending Russia against foreign invaders. Overall, this remarkable print transports us back to that fateful day in August 1812 when history was being written on these very grounds near Ostrovno. It stands not only as a testament to artistic excellence but also serves as a powerful symbol of resilience amidst conflict.
