EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Hunting with Borzois, 1840s" takes us back to the thrilling world of Russian hunting in the 19th century. The artwork, found in the esteemed Collection of State Museum of Leo Tolstoy in Moscow, showcases a scene painted by Alexei Alexandrovich Vasilyev. In this masterpiece, we witness a group of skilled huntsmen on horseback accompanied by their loyal and majestic Borzois. These elegant greyhounds were highly prized for their speed and agility during wolf hunts. With their slender bodies and graceful movements, they were ideal companions for such pursuits. The painting captures the essence of an exhilarating hunt as the hunters navigate through a vast landscape. The artist's meticulous attention to detail brings every element to life - from the flowing manes of horses to the intense expressions on both human and canine faces. As we delve into this historical piece, we are transported back in time to experience firsthand the thrill and excitement that these huntsmen must have felt. It is not merely a depiction of a pastime but also serves as a testament to Russia's rich cultural heritage. With its vibrant colors and masterful brushwork, this oil-on-canvas painting stands as an exquisite example of Russian artistry from the 19th century. Its presence within the State Museum of Leo Tolstoy ensures that it will continue to be cherished for generations to come.
