With his novel War and Peace, L. N. Tolstoy created a grand literary canvas about Russia at the beginning of the 19th century. A detailed chronicle of the lives of several noble families, large-scale battle scenes, an accurate portrait of society with its ideology, philosophy, and everyday life - in all the details of the novel, researchers recognize the author's "highest artistic objectivity". The writer studied the Russian character using several hundred characters as an example. Some of them are historical figures, while others are based on prototypes, including members of Tolstoy's own family. The writer used an incredible number of historical sources, archival materials, family legends, and memoirs, from which an entire library was assembled. With this edition, the classic illustrations of Dementiy Alekseevich Shmarinov, which are part of the golden fund of Russian book graphics, return to the reader. Incredibly alive, as if drawn from life, they are in amazing harmony with the text of one of the central works of world literature.
