EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and historically significant print showcases a captivating "Map of Siberia showing the immense natural resources of the area" from 1933. Created by an anonymous French School artist, this colour lithograph provides a visual representation of the economic potential that lies within Siberia's vast territory. The map not only highlights the abundant reserves of petrol, coal, zinc, lead, gold, and oil found in Siberia but also emphasizes its significance as a trading route. A sea route depicted on the map hints at the potential for increased commerce and trade opportunities if this passage were to be opened up. The Trans-Siberian railway linking Moscow and Vladivostok is also featured, symbolizing Russia's commitment to developing infrastructure for economic growth. With its rich assortment of commodities such as rice, cotton, minerals, and houille (coal), Siberia emerges as an essential region for both domestic consumption and international trade. This depiction underscores Soviet Russia's focus on economic development during this period. Preserved in a private collection today after being published in L'URSS en construction (The USSR under Construction), this image serves as a testament to the ambitious plans laid out by Soviet authorities to harness Siberia's vast resources for national prosperity. Through this striking visual representation of Siberia's natural wealth and strategic importance as a trading hub connecting East with West via land and sea routes alike, viewers are transported back in time to witness an era when resource exploitation played a pivotal role in shaping global economies.
