This print takes us back to the 1920s, a time when steam-powered trains were the lifeline of transportation in Russia. The drawing depicts the iconic Railway Express journey from St. Petersburg to Moscow, showcasing the rich history and technological advancements of that era. The artist's use of vibrant colors brings this historical moment to life, as we witness the hustle and bustle of passengers boarding the train at St. Petersburg station. The horizontal composition allows us to appreciate every intricate detail - from the billowing smoke emerging from the locomotive's chimney to each carriage adorned with its own unique design. As we delve into this private collection, it is fascinating how this artwork captures not only a mode of transport but also a glimpse into Russian society during that time.
