Trojka voor een huis in de sneeuw before 1899

"Trojka voor een huis in de sneeuw" is a photograph by Russian artist Alexis Mazourine, taken before 1899. The image captures a troika, a traditional Russian horse-drawn carriage, traveling across a snowy landscape towards a small wooden house. The troika's silhouette stands out against the white expanse of the snow, creating a stark and evocative image. Mazourine was known for his black-and-white photography, which often focused on capturing the essence of rural life in Russia. This image, with its focus on a traditional mode of transport and a simple scene of daily life, is a prime example of Mazourine's work.
