EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures a moment of respite for Russian villagers as they take a break from their labor on the family farm. Dated circa 1901, the image shows a group of peasants gathered outside their wooden cabin home, sitting in the lush grass and enjoying their lunch. The women, dressed in traditional Russian garments, prepare food for their extended family, while the children play nearby. The men, weary from their work, sit together, their faces reflecting the hardships of rural life under serfdom. In the background, a cart or wagon with spoked wheels is visible, suggesting the daily toil that continues even during this brief pause. The simple pleasures of community and the beauty of the natural surroundings offer a momentary reprieve from the challenges of agricultural life in rural Russia during this historical period.
