EDITORS COMMENTS
This frontispiece, created by Grigori Grigorievich Gagarin in 1845, is a print from the novelette "Tarantas" written by Vladimir Sollogub. The intricate woodcut design showcases Gagarin's exceptional talent and attention to detail. The image transports us to 19th-century Russia, where the story unfolds. A tarantass, a traditional Russian carriage known for its durability and ability to withstand rough terrain, takes center stage. It is beautifully adorned with ornate carvings and decorative elements that reflect the opulence of the era. The composition exudes a sense of movement as we see horses pulling the tarantass at full speed through a picturesque landscape. The dynamic lines and shading techniques employed in this woodcut add depth and dimension to the scene. As our eyes explore further, we notice figures inside the carriage engaged in animated conversation or perhaps embarking on an exciting journey filled with adventure. This visual narrative invites us into their world, igniting our curiosity about what lies ahead. Preserved within a private collection, this rare piece of book art serves as both an exquisite example of fine art imagery and an homage to Russian literary history. Through this frontispiece, Gagarin masterfully captures the essence of Sollogub's "Tarantas" enticing viewers with its beauty while hinting at the thrilling tale that awaits within its pages.
