EDITORS COMMENTS
Count Lev Nikolayevich Tolstoy, the renowned Russian author of War and Peace and Anna Karenina, took his last ride on November 20, 1910, leaving behind a literary legacy that continues to captivate readers around the world. In this poignant photograph, Tolstoy is depicted riding to his bath, an outdoor portrait on horseback that encapsulates the essence of his later years. The late Count Tolstoi, affectionately known as "Russia's Dead Thinker," had retired to a monastery in search of spiritual enlightenment, leaving behind the worldly pleasures and fame that once defined him. This picturesque image captures the quiet determination and introspective nature of a man who dedicated his final years to seeking inner peace. Tolstoy's departure from the world came as a shock to many, as he had only recently passed away at the age of 82. The photograph, taken in 1910, serves as a poignant reminder of a man who continued to live life on his own terms, even in the face of death. The image of Tolstoy riding to his bath on horseback is a testament to the enduring power of the written word and the indomitable spirit of one of Russia's greatest thinkers. This photograph, a snapshot of a moment in time, offers a glimpse into the life of a man who defied convention and left an indelible mark on literature and the world.
