The Only Session of the All-Russian Constituent Assembly - A Glimpse into Revolutionary Russia
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, captured in vivid color lithography by Boris Vasilievich Zvorykin, offers a rare glimpse into one of the most significant events in Russian history. The image depicts the sole session of the All-Russian Constituent Assembly held on January 18th, 1918, in Petrograd. The scene unfolds within an ornate interior as soldiers donning military uniforms fill the space. Representing a diverse range of political ideologies and factions, these soldiers embody the turbulent times that marked this historic event. Among them are members of various socialist rebel groups such as Bolsheviks and Soviet supporters. The assembly itself was intended to be a representative body for workers in Petrograd during this revolutionary period. However, it ultimately became a symbol of discord and division among different factions vying for power amidst political upheaval. Zvorykin's masterful lithograph captures not only the physical presence but also the palpable tension within this gathering. It serves as a testament to both hope and uncertainty that characterized Russia at that time—a nation on the brink of profound change. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from our private collection, we are transported back to those fateful moments when history was being shaped before our eyes. This print is not just an artistic masterpiece; it is an invaluable window into one of humanity's most transformative revolutions—the Russian Revolution—forever etched in our collective memory
