EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, Russian artist Boris Vasilievich Smirnov captures a moment of quiet interaction between two men in an inn on the outskirts of Krasnoyarsk, Siberia, in 1904. Smirnov, who was traveling by prisoner transport across Siberia at the time, created a series of drawings and watercolors of the people and places he encountered during his journey. This pencil drawing depicts two full-length figures, one a waiter holding a tray laden with a saucepot and glasses, the other a man in a long coat, seated at the counter. The waiter, with a serious expression, seems to be in the midst of pouring a drink for the man, who looks up at him with a thoughtful gaze. The inn, with its simple wooden furniture and rough-hewn walls, exudes a sense of rugged, frontier charm. The men's clothing and the waiter's apron suggest the practicality and hardiness required for life in this remote region. Smirnov's skillful use of pencil shading and tone creates a sense of depth and texture, drawing the viewer into the scene and transporting us back in time to this quiet moment in a Siberian tavern.
