EDITORS COMMENTS
This watercolour print by Auguste Poireau takes us back to the vibrant streets of Saint Petersburg in 1828. The roller coasters on Krestovsky Island stand tall and proud, inviting thrill-seekers to embark on a heart-pounding adventure. With its delicate brushstrokes and vivid colors, Poireau's artwork beautifully captures the energy and excitement of this bustling amusement park. As we gaze at the painting, we can almost hear the laughter and screams of delight from those brave enough to take a ride on these towering structures. The queue stretches out before us, filled with people eagerly awaiting their turn for an adrenaline rush. Patience is key as they anxiously anticipate their chance to experience the twists and turns of the big dipper. Beyond the roller coasters, we catch glimpses of other attractions that make up this lively cityscape: a merry-go-round spinning gracefully in circles, a serene river flowing nearby, and stunning architecture that adds grandeur to this outdoor oasis. Poireau's artwork not only showcases his artistic talent but also provides us with a glimpse into Russian culture during this era. It reminds us that even in times past, people sought entertainment and joy in their spare time. This piece serves as both a historical record and an invitation to imagine ourselves transported back to 19th century Russia – where art met adventure on Krestovsky Island.
