EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing "Illustration for Canto of Oleg the Wise" created by renowned artist Viktor Mikhaylovich Vasnetsov in 1899. The artwork, now part of a private collection, transports viewers to a realm where fantasy and superstition intertwine with history and mythology. In this enchanting scene, we witness a powerful man on horseback, adorned in splendid armor. He is none other than Oleg the Wise, an iconic figure from Russian folklore and legend. As he gazes into the distance with determination and wisdom in his eyes, one can almost feel the magic emanating from him. Vasnetsov's masterful use of symbolism brings forth themes of heroism and good versus evil prevalent in fairy tales and epics. Through his intricate brushstrokes, he captures not only the essence of Oleg but also that of medieval Slavic culture. The illustration takes us back to ancient times when Kiev was ruled by grand princes and statesmen like Oleg himself. It immerses us in a world filled with historical significance while simultaneously evoking feelings of wonderment at its fantastical elements. With its rich colors and meticulous attention to detail, this piece exemplifies Vasnetsov's talent as an artist associated with Peredvizhniki or "the Wanderers" a group known for their contributions to Russian literature through visual art forms such as book design. Overall, this print serves as a gateway into an old Russian legend –
