This print titled "Joining of Great Novgorod, Novgorodians Departing to Moscow" transports us back to the year 1880 in Russia. The artist behind this masterpiece is Aleksei Danilovich Kivshenko, renowned for his exceptional talent in capturing historical events on paper. In this scene, we witness a momentous occasion as soldiers and guards from Novgorod prepare to depart for Moscow. Clad in their traditional costumes, they stand tall with spears held firmly in hand. Their presence commands respect and evokes a sense of pride among the townspeople who have gathered to witness this grand procession. The focal point of the image lies beyond the crowd, where an imposing church with its magnificent domes stands proudly against the sky. This architectural marvel serves as a symbol of faith and unity, reminding us that even amidst political transitions and military endeavors, religion remains at the heart of Russian culture.
