EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Hold up! (From the Series Scenes du Caucase)" by Mihaly Zichy takes us on a visual journey to the rugged landscapes of the Caucasus region. This fine art image, part of a private collection, transports us to an era when the Russian Empire grappled with resistance and guerrilla warfare in Dagestan and Chechnya. In this scene, we witness a Russian soldier standing tall amidst the majestic mountains of Northern Caucasus. The artist skillfully captures both the beauty and tension that permeate these lands. As we gaze at this watercolour on paper masterpiece, we are reminded of the turbulent history that unfolded in these very mountains. Zichy's work evokes thoughts of holy wars and conflicts fought in this region throughout time. The Caucasian Wars come alive through his brushstrokes, transporting us back to a time when soldiers faced fierce opposition from local fighters who fiercely defended their homeland. This genre painting not only showcases Zichy's artistic prowess but also serves as a historical document capturing an important chapter in Russia's past. It reminds us of the struggles endured by both sides during this tumultuous period. As we admire this print, let it serve as a reminder that art has the power to transport us across time and space, allowing us to reflect upon our shared human experiences even centuries later.
