EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the character Nikolai Rostov at the hunt, as depicted in Leo Tolstoy's renowned novel War and Peace. Created by Alexander Petrovich in 1911, this illustration is a true masterpiece of allegory and literature. Housed within the esteemed State Museum of Leo Tolstoy in Moscow, it serves as a testament to both the artist's skill and Tolstoy's timeless storytelling. The scene portrayed here transports us to a world of mythological beauty, where Rostov emerges as an emblematic hunter amidst lush landscapes. With watercolor on paper technique, Petrovich brings life to every detail - from Rostov's determined expression to his loyal wolfhound by his side. The intensity of their pursuit is palpable; one can almost hear the howls echoing through the forest. As we delve into this image, we are reminded not only of Rostov's personal journey but also of the larger themes explored in War and Peace: love, war, fate, and human nature itself. Through hunting symbolism intertwined with graphic arts mastery, Petrovich captures our imagination and invites us to reflect upon these profound concepts. This print stands as a testament to Russia's rich literary heritage while serving as an exquisite piece of fine art that transcends time. It allows us to immerse ourselves in Tolstoy's epic tale once more – reminding us why War and Peace continues to captivate readers around the globe for over a century.
