Alexander Pushkin's poem "Poltava" is a vast historical canvas in which the fate of a nation and personal passions intertwine.
The narrative centers on the love of the Ukrainian beauty Maria for the aging hetman Ivan Mazepa, his betrayal of Tsar Peter I, and his defection to the Swedish king Charles XII. One of the poem's most striking episodes is the Battle of Poltava in 1709, which decided the outcome of the Northern War and the fate of Russia.
The text is accompanied by illustrations by Vladimir Alexandrovich Serov, which are among the golden treasures of Soviet book graphics. The original illustrations are housed in the All-Russian A.S. Pushkin Museum and the Tver Regional Art Gallery.
