EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the renowned Russian author Leo Tolstoy in a tender moment with his beloved granddaughter Tatiana. Taken in Yasnaya Polyana, Russia around 1910, this image showcases the deep bond between generations within the walls of their family home. Tolstoy, widely regarded as one of the greatest novelists of all time, is known for his literary masterpieces War and Peace and Anna Karenina. Yasnaya Polyana holds great significance as it was not only Tolstoy's birthplace but also where he lived throughout his life. After his passing, this cherished location became a memorial museum that has been meticulously restored to reflect its original state during Tolstoy's residency. In this photograph by artist Vladimir Grigorievich Chertkov, we witness an elderly Tolstoy sitting comfortably on a chair while listening intently to young Tatiana. The scene exudes warmth and joy as they engage in storytelling or perhaps share moments of quiet contemplation together. As we explore this snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the power of literature to transcend generations and connect people from different walks of life. It serves as a poignant reminder that even great authors like Leo Tolstoy find solace within their own families amidst their remarkable contributions to the world through their words.
