EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from 1920, we are transported back in time to Petrograd, Russia. The image captures the intriguing trio of Moura Budberg, Herbert George Wells, and Maxim Gorky in a moment frozen forever. The composition is beautifully framed, showcasing the personalities of these influential figures. Moura Budberg stands tall and elegant at the center of the frame, exuding an air of mystery with her enigmatic smile. Flanked on either side by two literary giants - H. G. Wells and Maxim Gorky - she appears as a bridge between their worlds. Wells' distinguished presence is evident as he gazes into the distance with an intellectual intensity. His reputation as one of Britain's most celebrated writers is palpable even in this still image. On the other side stands Maxim Gorky, his rugged features hinting at a life filled with passion and struggle. As one of Russia's greatest authors and political activists during that tumultuous era, his contribution to literature cannot be overstated. This rare glimpse into their lives offers us a glimpse into a momentous period in history where artistry collided with politics amidst revolution and change. It serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos, great minds can come together to shape our world. Preserved within a private collection today, this print allows us to reflect upon these remarkable individuals who left an indelible mark on literature and society alike.
