EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in Russian history, depicting Catherine II on the Balcony of the Winter Palace. The image showcases the grandeur and power associated with monarchy during the late 18th century. Greeted by her loyal guards on June 28,1762, this snapshot immortalizes the day of the Palace Revolution. Catherine II, also known as Catherine the Great, was an influential ruler who reigned over Russia with grace and determination. Her presence exudes authority and elegance as she stands tall on the balcony, surrounded by members of her aristocracy. This anonymous artwork beautifully portrays Catherine II's regal stature and classicism. The painting provides a glimpse into Russian society at that time; it symbolizes not only Catherine II's autocratic rule but also highlights her role as a stateswoman. As one of Russia's most powerful empresses from the Romanov dynasty, she played a crucial part in shaping Russian history. Preserved within the State Hermitage collection in St. Petersburg, this fine art piece serves as a testament to both artistic skill and historical significance. Through watercolour and gouache techniques on cardboard canvas, this masterpiece brings to life an era long gone but forever remembered. As we gaze upon this photograph print today, we are reminded of Catherine II's lasting legacy as Empress of Russia – a woman who left an indelible mark on Russian monarchy and history itself.
