EDITORS COMMENTS
Caption: "Arrival of the First Train from St. Petersburg to Tsarskoye Selo, 30 October 1837". This print captures a significant moment in history - the arrival of the first train from St. Petersburg to Tsarskoye Selo on 30 October 1837. The image, dating back to the early 1840s, showcases a remarkable milestone in Russia's rail transport development. The scene unfolds at a bustling railway station platform in St. Petersburg, where an impressive steam train and its locomotive have just arrived from their inaugural journey to Tsarskoye Selo. The magnificent neoclassical architecture surrounding the station adds grandeur and elegance to this historic event. The fine art watercolour depicts vivid details of this monumental occasion with precision and skillful execution by artist Karl Petrovich Beggrov (1799-1875). His copper engraving technique beautifully captures both the architectural splendor and technological marvel of early steam-powered locomotives. Tsarskoye Selo served as a royal residence during that time, making this railway connection even more significant as it facilitated easier access for members of royalty and high-ranking officials between St. Petersburg and their summer retreats like Pavlovsk Palace. Preserved within Moscow's I. Turgenev Memorial Museum collection, this rare photograph serves as a testament to Russia's rich history of rail transport while offering us glimpses into an era when steam trains revolutionized travel
