EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "At the Fortress Walls. Let them in!, 1871" by Vasili Vasilyevich Vereshchagin showcases a powerful scene that evokes a range of emotions. The image, found in the esteemed collection of the State Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow, transports us to a moment in history where tenderness and bravery collide. In this painting, we witness a mother standing at the fortress walls with her child nestled safely in her arms. The artist skillfully captures the essence of motherhood and maternal love as she gazes down at her little one with an expression filled with both luck and determination. It is as if she is saying, "I will protect you no matter what". The delicate brushstrokes and use of oil on canvas create an impressionistic effect that adds depth and poetry to this genre piece. As we admire this work, we are reminded of Berthe Morisot's influence on impressionism during this era. Through this image, Vereshchagin invites us to reflect on family life and the strength that can be found within it. This painting serves as a timeless reminder of the bond between mother and child - an eternal symbol of love amidst chaos.
