EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Emperor Alexander II of Russia at the Races on June 2nd, 1867. Created by Alfred Mouillard, a talented artist from France, this pen and ink with watercolor on paper artwork is now housed in the Bibliotheque Nationale in Paris. In this portrait, Emperor Alexander II exudes regal elegance as he dons a top hat and sports stylish sideburns and a distinguished mustache. The artist skillfully portrays the emperor's commanding presence and noble stature. The setting of the races adds an air of excitement to the composition. One can almost feel the anticipation in the air as spectators eagerly await their favorite horses to gallop past. It is evident that even amidst his royal duties, Emperor Alexander II found time for leisurely pursuits such as attending horse races. This artwork offers us a glimpse into history, allowing us to witness an important moment in time when royalty mingled with commoners at public events. It serves as a reminder that even those who hold great power are not immune to enjoying simple pleasures like watching horse races. As we admire this remarkable piece, let us appreciate both its artistic beauty and its historical significance. Through Mouillard's skilled handiwork, we are transported back to 19th-century Russia where we can catch a glimpse of one of its most influential leaders indulging in moments of leisure away from his responsibilities as tsar.
