EDITORS COMMENTS
Parade in front of the Anichkov Palace on 26 February 1870, captured by Hungarian artist Mihaly Zichy, is a remarkable piece of fine art that offers a glimpse into the vibrant history of Saint Petersburg. This exquisite watercolour and gouache painting, housed in the prestigious State Hermitage collection, beautifully depicts an iconic moment in time. The grandeur of the Anichkov Palace takes center stage as it proudly stands against a backdrop of clear blue skies. Its architectural beauty perfectly complements the lively scene unfolding before it. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully portrays every figure and horse with precision and grace. As we delve deeper into this artwork, we are transported back to that fateful day - 26 February 1870. A parade fills the streets with excitement and anticipation. Men in uniform march proudly alongside elegantly dressed women who watch from balconies above. The air is filled with joyous cheers and applause. Zichy's masterful use of colors brings life to each stroke, creating an atmosphere that immerses us in this historical event. Through his artistic lens, we witness not only a parade but also a snapshot of society at that time - its customs, fashion trends, and social dynamics. This painting serves as both a testament to Zichy's talent as an academic artist and an invaluable window into Saint Petersburg's rich cultural heritage.
