EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a significant moment in history - the attempted assassination of General Trepov by Vera Zasulich on January 24,1878. The image, sourced from "Le Monde Illustre" and now housed in the esteemed Collection of Bibliotheque Nationale de France, offers a glimpse into Imperial Russia during a time of rebellion and revolt. Vera Zasulich, an influential figure within the revolutionary organization Narodnaya Volya (People's Will), took matters into her own hands as she aimed her gun at General Trepov. This act symbolized the people's will to fight against oppression and sparked terror throughout Russia. The woodcut technique used to reproduce this photograph adds depth and texture, enhancing its realism. Frederic Theodore's masterful composition captures the intensity of this historical event while also highlighting Zasulich's bravery in standing up against imperial rule. As we gaze upon this powerful image, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by those who fought for justice and freedom. The Fine Art Images/Heritage Images collaboration brings forth this remarkable piece that not only serves as a visual documentation but also invites us to reflect on the tumultuous period in Russian history. It is through such preserved artifacts that we can delve deeper into our past, understanding how rebellions shape nations and inspire future generations.
