EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Khabarovsk: Cliff, 1904-1917," captures a stunning view of the rugged cliffs along the shore of Khabarovsk, a city located in the far eastern part of Russia, near the border with China and the Sea of Japan. The image, created by the Russian photographer Pil'man, transports us back in time to the early 20th century, during a period of significant change in Russian history. The photograph shows a bustling waterfront scene, with several boats and barrels lining the shore. The cliffs, which serve as a natural barrier, meet the water's edge, creating a dramatic and picturesque setting. The postal service and transportation industries are evident in the image, with boats likely used for both communication and cargo transport. Khabarovsk, which was founded in 1858, was an important hub for trade and communication between Russia and other parts of Asia. The city's strategic location made it a meeting place for people from diverse backgrounds, including Russians, Chinese, and indigenous peoples. This photograph is a valuable historical artifact, providing a glimpse into the past and offering insights into the geography, culture, and history of Khabarovsk and the surrounding region during a pivotal time in Russian history. The National Library of Russia, where this photograph is housed, preserves and protects such treasures, ensuring that future generations can learn from and appreciate the rich heritage of Russia and the world.
