EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Near the city of Polotsk on July 25,1812" takes us back to the early 19th century during a significant period in European history. Created by Christian Wilhelm von Faber du Faur, an esteemed artist known for his graphic arts, this piece showcases his mastery in capturing historical events. The scene depicted is from the Napoleonic Wars, specifically Napoleon Bonaparte's invasion of Russia. The lithograph portrays Russian and French troops engaged in battle near Polotsk. The intensity and chaos of war are vividly portrayed through Faber du Faur's skilled use of watercolors. As we gaze upon this fine art image found in the State Borodino War and History Museum in Moscow, we are transported to that fateful day on July 25,1812. It serves as a reminder of the bravery and sacrifice exhibited by soldiers on both sides during this tumultuous time. The significance of this artwork lies not only in its artistic merit but also its historical value. It captures a crucial moment when Mikhail Kutuzov led the Russian army against Napoleon's forces. This event marked one of many battles fought during what Russians refer to as the Patriotic War or Coalition Wars. Through this photo print, we can appreciate Faber du Faur's talent for immortalizing key moments from history while honoring those who fought valiantly during these turbulent times.
