EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous occasion in history - Catherine the Great's visit to the Ice Mountain in Saint Petersburg, 1788. The artist, Paterssen, skillfully brings this scene to life with his exquisite use of watercolor and gouache on paper. In this winter wonderland setting, we witness the grandeur of the Russian Empress as she indulges in the festivities of the season. Surrounded by snow-covered landscapes and frozen waters of Neva River, Catherine II embraces the joyous atmosphere of carnival celebrations. The image showcases an array of winter sports activities that were popular during that era. From sleigh rides to tobogganing down ice mountains, it is evident that amusement was at its peak during this time. The presence of a roller coaster adds an element of thrill and excitement to this already vibrant scene. Catherine II's love for her people is palpable through her participation in these festivities.
