EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the 1900s, we witness a moment frozen in time as Tsarina Alexandra Fyodorovna pays a visit to the historic Iberian Chapel in Moscow, Russia. The chapel, standing proudly before the Iberian Gate that leads to Kitai-gorod, has been home to a replica of the revered miracle-working icon of Panaghia Portaitissa since 1669. The image captures not only the architectural beauty of the chapel but also showcases elements of transportation and worship during that era. A horse-drawn carriage awaits outside, ready to transport members of royalty and worshippers alike. The presence of horses adds an air of elegance and grandeur to this scene. Tsarina Alexandra Fyodorovna stands alongside other individuals, both male and female, who have come to pay their respects at this sacred place. Their attire reflects their devotion as they engage in religious practices within these hallowed grounds. This photograph provides us with a glimpse into Russian history, showcasing the country's rich religious heritage and its deep-rooted connection with Christianity. It serves as a reminder of the monarchy's influence on matters of faith during that period. Preserved in monochrome tones through silver gelatin print techniques by fine art images specialists at the State Museum of History in Moscow, this remarkable piece offers us an opportunity to step back in time and appreciate both architectural marvels and cultural traditions that continue to shape our world today.
