EDITORS COMMENTS

Moscow, a city steeped in history and culture, has been the backdrop for countless remarkable moments throughout time. From the enchanting melodies of composer Sergei Rachmaninov resonating through its streets in the early 1900s to Anton Chekhov's profound influence on the Moscow Art Theatre group, this vibrant metropolis has always been a hub of artistic expression. Intriguingly, even renowned US astronomer Carl Sagan found himself captivated by Moscow's allure. As he gazed at a map of the Trans-Siberian Railway produced by J. Bartholomew & Co. , circa 1920, he must have marveled at the vastness and diversity that Russia had to offer. The grandeur is not limited to its cultural heritage alone; it extends to architectural marvels like the iconic Metropole Hotel. Standing tall amidst bustling streets, this historic landmark has witnessed countless stories unfold within its walls. Artistic movements also found their voice in Moscow during tumultuous times. The powerful poster "Beat the Whites with the red wedge" created by El Lissitzky in 1920 encapsulates an era defined by revolutionary fervor and political change. But beyond politics and artistry lies another facet of life in Moscow – leisure and entertainment. A vibrant dance festival advertised through captivating posters brought joyous celebrations to every corner of this city known for embracing festivities. Even ancient artifacts from far-flung lands find their way into Moscow's embrace. Egyptian Roman period Fayum mummy portraits remind us that this city is not bound by time or borders but rather serves as a melting pot where cultures converge. From artistic endeavors to physical prowess, synchronised swimming became an art form practiced passionately within these city limits – showcasing both gracefulness and strength with each synchronized movement beneath crystal-clear waters. As one descends into Komsomolskaya Metro Station's awe-inspiring interior, the architectural beauty of Moscow's underground transport system reveals itself.
