EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolithograph from the 10th century Sclavonian manuscript in the Vatican Library takes us back to a time of fierce conflicts and intense battles. Depicting a cavalry skirmish between Russians and Bulgarians, this print offers a glimpse into an ancient war that shaped the history of these nations. The scene is filled with action as Russian horsemen charge forward, routing their Bulgarian adversaries. The intensity of the clash is palpable, with dust clouds rising from beneath galloping hooves and weapons clashing amidst cries of warriors. The artist's attention to detail brings every element to life - from the intricate armor worn by both sides to the determination etched on each soldier's face.
