EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "Yes, his nose is perfect" we are transported back to the 19th century and introduced to a fascinating character from Russian history. The image showcases Czar Paul of Russia, known for his distinctive snub nose that has become synonymous with his identity. The artist, belonging to the English School, pays meticulous attention to detail as they capture every contour and curve of the czar's flawless nose. It is evident that this feature holds great significance in defining his persona. Perhaps it symbolizes power, authority, or even a touch of eccentricity. This artwork was originally created as an illustration for Chatterbox magazine in 1892. Its inclusion in the publication suggests that Czar Paul's unique facial attribute was a topic of fascination and discussion during that era. As we delve deeper into the historical context surrounding this print, we are reminded of Russia's vast cultural diversity and its connections with Asia. The mention of Asian influences prompts us to contemplate how such interactions shaped not only Russian society but also influenced perceptions of beauty across different regions. Overall, "Yes, his nose is perfect" serves as a visual testament to the intriguing nature of human features and their ability to captivate our imagination throughout time.
