EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving showcases a breathtaking view of Moscow, Russia, as it appeared around the year 1800. The image, created by the skilled hands of Giarre and Stanghi for Giulio Ferrario's "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World," published in Florence in 1847, provides a unique window into the past. Moscow, the historic heart of Russia, is depicted with its grand architecture, including the iconic red-roofed buildings, the Kremlin fortress, and the Moskva River winding through the city. The engraving also reveals the daily life of Moscow's residents, as they go about their business in the bustling streets. The intricate details of the engraving, from the ornate decorations on the buildings to the traditional clothing worn by the people, offer a glimpse into the rich history and culture of Moscow during the 19th century. The handcolouring adds depth and vibrancy to the image, making it a stunning work of art that transports us back in time. This view of Moscow is not only a testament to the artistic prowess of Giarre and Stanghi but also serves as a valuable historical record of a city that continues to captivate and inspire visitors from around the world. The engraving is a reminder of the beauty and complexity of the past and the enduring allure of Moscow as a cultural and historical treasure.
