EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Droshka, 1803" takes us on a journey back in time to the enchanting world of 19th-century Russia. Created by the talented artist John Augustus Atkinson, this colour lithograph beautifully captures the essence of Russian culture and transportation during that era. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly the droshka itself - a traditional Russian horse-drawn carriage. Its vibrant red color stands out against the picturesque landscape, drawing our attention to its intricate design and craftsmanship. The wheels spin gracefully as they carry passengers through an idyllic countryside scene, evoking a sense of tranquility and serenity. A male figure can be seen seated inside the droshka, perhaps a nobleman or an aristocrat enjoying his leisurely ride. A broom rests at his side, hinting at his status and affluence. The presence of a trough suggests that this mode of transport was not only used for pleasure but also served practical purposes in rural areas. Atkinson's attention to detail is evident in every brushstroke; from the lush greenery surrounding the path to the delicate strokes depicting clouds overhead. This artwork showcases Atkinson's skill as both an artist and observer of life during this period. As we admire this exquisite piece from Fine Art Finder's collection, we are transported into a bygone era where elegance met functionality amidst breathtaking landscapes. It serves as a reminder of how art has always been able to capture moments frozen in time for
