EDITORS COMMENTS
First locomotive on the Oryol (Orel) Railway, Vitebsk, Russia, 1867. This print by artist Sigismund Yurkovsky takes us back to a significant moment in history - the arrival of the first locomotive on the Oryol Railway. The scene is set amidst a wintry landscape, with snow-covered fields and a frozen river creating a serene backdrop. In this remarkable image, we see the steam-powered train making its way across a sturdy bridge as it traverses through Vitebsk. The towering church in the distance adds an element of religious symbolism to this technological marvel of its time. A group of people can be seen observing this groundbreaking event from afar, their faces filled with awe and wonder. Yurkovsky's monochrome composition beautifully captures not only the progress made in transportation technology during the 19th century but also showcases Russia's rich cultural heritage. The horse-drawn carriage nearby serves as a reminder of traditional means of transport that were soon to be replaced by these new iron horses. This archival photograph from Moscow Photo Museum's collection provides us with a glimpse into an era where innovation met tradition against nature's harsh elements. It stands as a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance while offering us an opportunity to reflect upon our ever-evolving world.
