EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "La boyarine Morozova" by Alexander Dmitrievich Litovchenko, a renowned Russian artist of the 19th century. The painting depicts Feodosia Prokofiyevna Morozova (1632-1675), a fervent supporter of the Old Believers' rite, as she takes her monastic vows under the name Theodora. The image captures an intense moment during her arrest by supporters of the Moscow Patriarchate. In a defiant act, Morozova raises two fingers, referring to the dispute between the two factions regarding the correct way to make the sign of the cross. This gesture symbolizes her unwavering commitment to her beliefs and defiance against those who sought to suppress them. Litovchenko's masterful use of oil on canvas brings this historical event to life with vivid colors and intricate details. The painting is currently housed in the State Open Air Museum of History and Architecture Novgorodian Kremlin in Novgorod, Russia. This artwork not only serves as a visual representation of religious conflict but also highlights Morozova's courage and determination in standing up for what she believed in. It is a testament to both her personal strength and resilience as well as an important chapter in Russian history. Through this photo print, viewers are transported back in time to witness this significant moment that shaped religious practices and beliefs during that era.
