This lithograph, titled "The Election of Boris Godunov to the Tsar. 1598" takes us back in time to a crucial moment in Russian history. Created by the talented artist Boris Artemyevich Chorikov in 1836, this print offers a glimpse into the tumultuous period known as the Time of Troubles. In this scene, we witness the pivotal election of Boris Godunov as Tsar of Russia. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation and uncertainty, reflecting the challenges faced by Muscovy at that time. As viewers, we are transported to Moscow's grand duchy where political power hangs in the balance. Chorikov's attention to detail brings historical figures and events vividly to life. Through his masterful brushstrokes, he captures not only the physical likeness but also the complex emotions etched on each character's face. We can almost feel their anxiety and hopefulness as they participate in this significant electoral process.

It reminds us of how individuals like Boris Godunov shaped Russian tsardom during critical junctures in its development.
