EDITORS COMMENTS
Boris Vasilievich Smirnov's captivating watercolor painting, titled "Locomotive in the Ural Mountains near Zlatoust," transports us back in time to the early 1900s. This breathtaking work of art was created by Smirnov in 1904 during his journey as a prisoner transported from western Russia across Siberia. The image offers an aerial view of a railway scene nestled amidst the majestic Ural Mountains, with the meeting of forest and mountainside creating a stunning contrast. The elevated perspective allows us to observe the intricate details of the locomotive and its railway carriage, perched precariously on the mountainside. The pencil drawing elements add depth and texture to the colorful watercolor, further highlighting the rugged terrain and the raw power of the train as it traverses the challenging landscape. This painting is a testament to Smirnov's artistic talent and his ability to capture the essence of a moment in time, offering a glimpse into the rich heritage and history of Russia during the early 20th century. The Novosibirsk State Museum of Regional History and Folklife in Russia and the Library of Congress in the United States are fortunate to have this remarkable work in their collections, allowing future generations to appreciate the beauty and historical significance of Smirnov's art.
