EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the title page from a Baedeker guide to Russia, published in 1914. The intricate engraving, created by an English School artist of the 20th century, is a true testament to the craftsmanship of that era. Displayed against a dark backdrop, this frontispiece exudes an air of mystery and adventure. The Baedeker guidebook was a trusted companion for intrepid travelers seeking to explore the vast lands of Russia. Its pages held invaluable information about cities like Teheran (now Tehran), Peking (now Beijing), Port Arthur, Shanghai, and many more fascinating destinations. This book served as an essential tool for tourists looking to immerse themselves in Russian culture and history. As we gaze upon this photo print, we are transported back in time to an era when travel was not just about reaching your destination but also about embracing new experiences and broadening one's horizons. The worn edges of the title page hint at countless journeys taken by curious explorers who eagerly flipped through its contents. Now preserved within a private collection belonging to eTravellers Club, this piece offers us a glimpse into the past while reminding us of our own wanderlust-filled desires. It serves as a reminder that even though times may change and technology may advance, there will always be something enchanting about holding onto tangible pieces of history like this Baedeker guidebook title page.
