EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a historic map created by the talented artist Gabriel Bodenehr, the Elder. The map depicts both Poltava and Bender, two significant locations during the Great Northern War between Russia and Sweden. With intricate details and precision, Bodenehr's cartography skillfully captures the essence of this tumultuous period in history. The image takes us back to a time when Tsar Peter I of Russia faced off against Charles XII of Sweden, with their respective armies battling for supremacy. The Battle of Poltava is particularly highlighted on this map, symbolizing a turning point in the war that ultimately led to Russian victory. Poltava, located in Ukraine, holds historical significance as it witnessed one of the most decisive battles in European military history. Meanwhile, Bender (also known as Tighina), situated along the Dniester River in Moldova, served as an important fortress during these turbulent times. Through this artwork, we gain insight into not only geographical aspects but also political dynamics and military strategies employed during that era. It serves as a reminder of how conflicts shape nations and alter destinies. Preserved within a private collection today, this fine art piece allows us to appreciate Bodenehr's etching skills while immersing ourselves in an intriguing chapter from our past.
