EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print of "Bohdan Khmelnytsky and Tuhay Bey" transports us back to the pages of history, specifically to the turbulent times depicted in Henryk Sienkiewicz's epic novel "With Fire and Sword". This stunning illustration, created by Juliusz Fortunat in 1886, captures a pivotal moment in the Cossack Polish War. In this scene, we witness Bohdan Khmelnytsky, the renowned Hetman of Ukraine and leader of the Zaporozhian Cossacks, standing tall with an air of pride. His gaze is fixed upon Tuhay Bey, a formidable adversary representing Tsar Alexey I of Russia. The tension between them is palpable as they confront each other on the battlefield.
