EDITORS COMMENTS
The Only Sitting of the Russian Constituent Assembly: A Glimpse into Revolutionary Politics". This print captures a momentous event in Russian history - the only sitting of the Russian Constituent Assembly in Petrograd after the October Revolution. Dated 18 January 1918, this color lithograph by Boris Vasilievich Zvorykin offers a vivid glimpse into the political landscape of early 20th century Russia. The image showcases a grand chamber within Tauride Palace, where politicians and military figures gather to shape the destiny of a nation engulfed in revolution. Soldiers and sailors stand guard, symbolizing both protection and power as they navigate through turbulent times. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation as socialist ideals clash with Bolshevik ambitions. Intriguingly, this illustration originates from "Histoire des Soviets" published in Paris around 1925. It serves as an invaluable historical document that sheds light on one of Russia's most critical turning points. From communists to socialists, politicians from various factions can be seen engaged in intense discussions, reflecting divergent visions for their country's future. This image not only provides insight into revolutionary politics but also highlights St. Petersburg's significance during this era. Known then as Petrograd before becoming Leningrad, it was at the heart of these transformative events that would reshape Russia and reverberate across Asia. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are transported back to that fateful day when hopes clashed with realities – forever etching its mark on Russian history.
