EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white postcard depicts a scene of horse-drawn carriages traversing the frozen surface of Lake Baikal in Russia during the early 1900s. The image is part of the Lake Baikal series, housed in the National Library of Russia. The tranquil lake, the largest freshwater lake in the world by volume, serves as a breathtaking backdrop to the horse-drawn vehicles, their passengers bundled up against the cold. The railway line and railway carriages in the background hint at the developing transportation infrastructure in the region, connecting the remote Siberian frontier to the rest of the country. The meeting of land and water, the icy landscape, and the horse-drawn carriages all convey a sense of history and the passage of time. This photograph, produced through a photomechanical process, offers a glimpse into the past, evoking a sense of nostalgia and wonder. The image is a testament to the rich heritage of Russian art and the beauty of Lake Baikal, a geographical feature that continues to captivate visitors and researchers alike.
