EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "RUSSIAN OFFICERS, 1870" transports us back to a significant moment in Russian military history. The image showcases two distinguished non-commissioned officers proudly posing for the camera after being awarded with the prestigious Cross of St. George in 1870. On the left side of the frame stands an officer from the Orenburg Cossack Troops, his uniform adorned with intricate details that reflect his rank and valor. His piercing gaze meets our own as he confidently holds a rifle by his side. A magnificent beard frames his face, adding an air of wisdom and experience to this formidable soldier. Seated beside him is another non-commissioned officer hailing from the Siberian Cossack Troops. Clad in a similar uniform but distinctively different hat, he exudes strength and resilience through his stoic expression. A sword rests on his lap, symbolizing both protection and authority. The late 19th-century attire worn by these men evokes a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era filled with honor and duty towards their homeland - Russia. Their medals glimmer under the light as they proudly display their hard-earned recognition for bravery on their chests. Preserved within this print lies not only a glimpse into Russian military traditions but also an appreciation for those who have dedicated themselves to serving their country selflessly throughout history. This remarkable piece captures not just two individuals but also embodies the spirit of countless soldiers who have
