EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Tsar Ivan IV Walking around Moscow" captures a powerful moment in Russian history. The image depicts Tsar Ivan IV, famously known as "Le terrible" walking through the streets of Moscow surrounded by his Streltsy guards. As he strolls along, the tsar encounters a group of beggars extending their begging bowls towards him. The painting, created by Boris Michaylovich Kustodiev in 1900, beautifully portrays the traditional wooden buildings that line the background. The artist's use of vibrant colors brings life to this scene from the 16th century. In this poignant portrayal, we witness both the opulence and generosity of Ivan IV juxtaposed with poverty and misery. Despite being an autocratic ruler feared by many, here we see him engaging with those less fortunate than himself. This encounter highlights his compassion and willingness to acknowledge those who are suffering. Set against a backdrop of snow-covered streets during winter, this image evokes a sense of coldness and hardship faced by ordinary people during that era. It serves as a reminder that even kings cannot escape the harsh realities faced by their subjects. Overall, this artwork not only showcases Kustodiev's talent but also offers us a glimpse into Russia's rich history and social dynamics during Ivan IV's reign.
