A Troup of Horses Crossing the Volga - A Journey on the Volga,
EDITORS COMMENTS
is an evocative and captivating photograph taken by the renowned English photographer, Nicholas Rowe, in the late 1870s. The image is taken from Henry Walter Bates' "Illustrated Travels," published by Cassell, Petter, and Galpin in London around 1880. The photograph depicts a group of wild horses, their powerful forms and muscular bodies in motion as they cross the expansive and tranquil Volga River in Russia. The horses' coats are glistening with water droplets, their manes and tails streaming behind them as they navigate the shallow ford. The river, a major geographical feature of Eastern Europe, flows calmly around them, reflecting the clear blue sky above. The photograph is a testament to the beauty and power of nature, as well as the untamed wilderness of Russia during the 19th century. The image captures the essence of a journey, inviting the viewer to imagine the adventure and excitement of traveling through the Russian countryside. The photograph is a masterpiece of 19th-century photography, showcasing Rowe's skill in capturing the raw beauty and energy of his subjects. The photograph is also a reflection of the time, providing a glimpse into the past and the world of exploration and discovery. It is a reminder of the importance of preserving natural wonders and the role that photography plays in documenting and sharing the beauty of the natural world. The image has become an iconic representation of the Volga River and the wild horses that once roamed its banks, and continues to inspire and captivate viewers to this day.
