EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the enchanting winter landscape of St. Petersburg in the 1850s. The image showcases the magnificent Russian Ice Mountain, standing proudly on Admiralty Square. This artwork, part of a private collection, beautifully captures the essence of this popular amusement during that era. The scene is filled with joy and excitement as people gather to celebrate various festivals such as Butter Week, Cheesefare Week, and Shrovetide. The atmosphere is festive with carnival rides like roller coasters and tobogganing providing endless entertainment for both young and old alike. The lithograph perfectly depicts the vibrant energy of this winter wonderland. With its fine art images and graphic arts techniques, it transports us into a world where poetry meets reality. The Neva River serves as a picturesque backdrop while sleighs glide gracefully across the snow-covered landscape. As we delve deeper into this snapshot from history, we are reminded of Russia's rich cultural heritage and its love for winter sports. From sledding to ice mountains or "Montagnes Russes" these activities were an integral part of Russian winters. This print not only captures a moment frozen in time but also invites us to appreciate the beauty and festivities that unfolded during those snowy days in Saint Petersburg over 150 years ago.
