EDITORS COMMENTS
This 18th-century print captures a pivotal moment in history - the assassination of Emperor Peter III Fyodorovich of Russia on July 17,1762. The painting, housed in the esteemed A. Pushkin Memorial Museum in St. Petersburg, transports us back to this tumultuous era. Amidst the backdrop of political intrigue and power struggles, this image offers a glimpse into the tender side of life - that of motherhood and familial love. In the foreground, we witness a mother cradling her child with utmost tenderness and affection. Her gaze is filled with both joy and concern as she nurtures her little one. The artist's brushstrokes exude an impressionistic charm, reminiscent of French fine art images from the same period. It is evident that Berthe Morisot drew inspiration from such works while creating this masterpiece. As we delve deeper into this scene, it becomes clear that luck has smiled upon these individuals amidst chaos and uncertainty. Their family life remains intact despite the volatile times they live in. In essence, this painting serves as a poetic reminder that even during periods marked by violence and upheaval, love endures - encapsulating both strength and vulnerability within its embrace.
