With the novel "War and Peace" L. N. Tolstoy created a grandiose literary canvas about Russia in the early XIX century. A detailed chronicle of the lives of several noble families, large-scale battle scenes, an accurate portrait of society with its ideology, philosophy, signs of everyday life - in all components of the novel, researchers recognize the author's "supreme artistic objectivity". The writer explored the Russian character on the example of several hundred characters. Some of them are historical persons, some of them are based on prototypes, including members of Tolstoy's own family. The writer used an incredible amount of historical sources, archival materials, family legends, memoirs, from which a whole library was collected. With this edition, the classic illustrations by Dementiy Alekseevich Shmarinov, which are part of the golden fund of Russian book graphics, return to the reader. Incredibly lively, made as if from life, they are in amazing harmony with the text of one of the central works of world literature.
