EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the esteemed Russian author Leo Tolstoy in a tender moment with his son-in-law and granddaughter. Taken in Russia around 1905-1906, this intimate family portrait was skillfully captured by Sophia Tolstaya, herself an accomplished writer. In the image, we see Leo Tolstoy seated comfortably on a chair, his distinguished beard framing his face. Beside him sits his son-in-law Mikhail Sukhotin, who married Tolstoy's eldest daughter Tatyana in 1899. The love between them is evident as they both cradle little Tatyana, their only child born on November 19th, 1905. The setting of the photograph exudes warmth and familiarity; it appears to be taken inside their home at Yasnaya Polyana. Surrounding them are pieces of furniture that reflect the era's charm and elegance. Leo Tolstoy's legacy as one of Russia's greatest novelists is well-known worldwide. However, this image offers us a glimpse into another side of him - that of a loving grandfather cherishing precious moments with his beloved granddaughter. Preserved within the collection of the State Museum of Tolstoys Estate at Yasnaya Polyana, this albumen photograph serves as a testament to not only Leo Tolstoy's literary genius but also to the enduring bonds of family and love across generations.
