Description
Composition of the picture copies the one of the engraving by Daniel Galyakhovsky (1709), which was presented to Peter I in Kiev by Mitropolit Theophan Prokopovich to celebrate the victory at Poltava. The picture is full of allegoric images, typical for Peter I time, presumably invented by Theophan Prokopovich circle. In the centre - Peter I on horseback, trampling the Swedish lion. On the right - defeated Swedes, the figure on the foreground, whose breast is exposed to the horse’s hoof, is seemingly Charles I. In the corners of the picture in the oval medallions are the Biblical heroes, famous for lion wrestling: Samson, David, Vaneas and Daniel. The Galyakhovsky’s engraving, probably not survived, is reproduced in the publication: Al’bom vystavki XII Archeologicheskogo s’ezda v g. Khar’kove. M., 1903. Tabl. 33 (Album of the Exhibition at the XII Archaeological Congress in Khar’kov).
