EDITORS COMMENTS
This exquisite rare Russian postcard dates back to May 9, 1900, and features a portrait of Tsar Nicholas II of Russia (1868-1918). The postcard was sent from the bustling port city of Odessa, Ukraine, and showcases an ornate, oval frame encasing the image of the Emperor. The portrait itself is set against an orange background, adding a warm and inviting tone to the design. Tsar Nicholas II, the last Emperor of Russia, is depicted in formal attire, wearing a crown and bearing an air of regal dignity. The inset image is surrounded by intricate, decorative elements, adding to the overall grandeur of the postcard. The use of muted colors and intricate detailing is characteristic of the artistry of the late 19th century. The rarity of this postcard lies not only in its age but also in its provenance from Odessa, a city that was a melting pot of cultures and influences during the early 1900s. The postcard's orange background and ornate frame are also unusual features, making it a unique and valuable addition to any collection of historical postcards or Russian memorabilia. This postcard offers a glimpse into the past, providing a tangible connection to a bygone era and the history of Russia during the late 19th century. Its intricate design and historical significance make it a must-have for collectors, historians, and anyone with an interest in Russian history and culture.
