EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in medieval Russian history - the Novgorod veche inviting Yaroslav II Vsevolodovich to rule over them. The image, dating back to the second half of the 16th century, is an anonymous masterpiece found in the collection of the Russian National Library in St. Petersburg. The illuminated manuscript showcases fine art at its best, with intricate details and vibrant colors adorning every corner. It belongs to the renowned Moscow school of art and features watercolor on parchment as its medium. Novgorod veche refers to a gathering of citizens who played a crucial role in shaping political decisions during that time. In this particular scene, we witness their invitation extended towards Yaroslav II Vsevolodovich, a prominent figure who would assume leadership over Novgorod. The image not only serves as a visual delight but also provides valuable insights into Russia's feudal republics and their complex dynamics during the Middle Ages. It offers us glimpses into old Russian art and illuminates our understanding of historical events through its illustrated chronicle format. As we explore this remarkable piece from Heritage Images' collection, let us appreciate both its artistic brilliance and historical significance that continue to captivate viewers centuries later.
