EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sketches in St Petersburg" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the bustling city of St Petersburg. Created by an English School artist, this engraving captures the essence of daily life in Russia's cultural capital. The image showcases a group of postal workers gathered outside the General Post Office, their distinctive uniforms marking them as essential figures in communication and connectivity. The architectural beauty of St Petersburg serves as a stunning backdrop, with its grand buildings and intricate details adding to the charm. As we delve deeper into this scene, we notice an intriguing blend of cultures. Amongst the Russian postmen are individuals who appear distinctly Asian, hinting at the diverse influences that shaped St Petersburg during this period. This fusion is further emphasized by references to Asia throughout the caption. The inclusion of these sketches in The Illustrated London News adds another layer to our understanding. Published on October 25th, 1856, they provide readers with a window into distant lands and foreign customs. Overall, this print invites us to explore both historical and cultural dimensions through its detailed depiction of everyday life in St Petersburg.
