EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - the "Map of Russia" from 1556. Created by an anonymous artist, this woodcut map offers a glimpse into the cartography and graphic arts of the Middle Ages. The intricate details and craftsmanship are truly awe-inspiring. Housed in the esteemed State History Museum in Moscow, this map holds immense significance for Russian history enthusiasts. It provides valuable insights into the early Rus period, Muscovy, and the Moscow Principality during that era. The Grand Duchy of Moscow's territorial boundaries are meticulously depicted, offering a visual representation of its vast dominion. The inclusion of Sigmund von Herberstein's name is noteworthy as he was an influential figure in European diplomacy with Russia during his time. His work "Rerum Moscoviticarum Commentarii" likely served as inspiration for this map. As we gaze upon this fine art image, we can't help but marvel at how it transports us back to a pivotal moment in Russian history. It serves as a testament to human curiosity and exploration during an age when maps were not only navigational tools but also works of art.
