EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable moment in history as Vladimir Vsevolodovich, a prominent ruler of Kievan Rus, is crowned by Bishop Neophytos with Monomakhs Cap. The image belongs to the illuminated compiled chronicle from the second half of the 16th century and can be found in the esteemed collection of the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. The photograph captures an exquisite medieval manuscript adorned with intricate gold details that bring this historical event to life. It provides a glimpse into the opulence and grandeur of ancient Russia, showcasing its rich cultural heritage. Vladimir Vsevolodovich, also known as Vladimir II or Vladimir Monomakh, was a revered statesman and member of the Rurik dynasty. As depicted in this artwork, his coronation symbolizes his ascent to power as he takes on the role of supreme ruler of Kievan Rus. Bishop Neophytos plays a significant role in this ceremony, bestowing upon Vladimir Monomakh not only political authority but also spiritual guidance. This collaboration between church and state highlights their intertwined relationship during medieval times. The fine art watercolor technique used on parchment adds depth and vibrancy to every brushstroke, making this illuminated manuscript an invaluable piece within Russian history. Its preservation allows us to appreciate and understand our past while honoring those who shaped it – such as Vladimir II Monomakh and Archbishop Neophytos I – both instrumental figures in shaping early Rus society.
