Skating on the Neva (colour litho)
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a vibrant winter scene in Moscow, Russia. The print, created by Akim Egorovich Karneev in the 19th century, showcases the timeless joy of ice skating on the frozen river. In this picturesque setting, skaters glide gracefully across the glistening ice as they revel in the exhilaration of their movements. The artist's attention to detail is evident in every element of this composition. From the meticulously rendered skates and overcoats to the distinctive bicorn hats adorning some figures' heads, Karneev brings life to each character on this icy stage. A horse-drawn sleigh adds an additional layer of charm and nostalgia to this wintry tableau. The Neva River itself becomes a central character within this artwork – its frozen surface providing both a playground for skaters and a canvas for Karneev's artistic expression. The artist skillfully captures not only the physicality of skating but also conveys a sense of camaraderie among those who partake in this popular winter pastime. Displayed at Pushkin Museum in Moscow, "Skating on the Neva (colour litho)" stands as a testament to Russia's rich cultural heritage and enduring love affair with outdoor activities during colder months. This print serves as an invitation for viewers to immerse themselves in its nostalgic beauty and imagine joining these skaters on their graceful journey across time-frozen waters.
