The artwork is part of the esteemed Collection of State Museum Abramtsevo Estate, located near Moscow. Crafted with intricate detail and vibrant colors, this majestic piece exemplifies the rich symbolism and fairy tale elements prevalent in Russian culture. Tsar Berendey is a character from various bylinas (epic poems) and plays an integral role in Rimsky-Korsakov's opera "The Snow Maiden". Depicted here as a polychrome majolica sculpture, this portrayal captures his regal presence and mythical aura. Created by renowned artist Mikhail Alexandrovich Vrubel (1856-1910), this fine art masterpiece beautifully merges traditional Russian folklore with artistic expression.

With its historical importance and aesthetic allure, this print provides viewers with an opportunity to appreciate one aspect of Russia's rich artistic heritage.
