EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Boyar, 1879" showcases the artistic brilliance of Johann-Georg-Christian Urlaub (1844-1914), a renowned German artist. The artwork is currently housed in the esteemed State Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow, Russia. The painting delves into the intricate world of feudalism, specifically focusing on the role of boyars during this historical period. Boyars were influential nobles who held significant power and influence in Muscovy, now known as Moscow Principality or Grand Duchy of Moscow. Urlaub's meticulous brushstrokes bring to life a scene depicting a muscovite boyar surrounded by his serfs. The artist masterfully captures the essence of serfdom, highlighting both its oppressive nature and hierarchical structure prevalent at that time. Through this academic art piece rendered with oil on canvas technique, viewers are transported back to an era steeped in Russian history. It serves as a poignant reminder of the stark social divisions that existed within society during feudal times. This print not only offers an insight into Urlaub's exceptional talent but also provides us with a visual representation of an important chapter in Russian history. Its presence within the State Tretyakov Gallery ensures its preservation for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
