Description

English: During the Livonian War (1578-1582), between Ivan the Terrible of Russia and Stefan Batory of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, the city was besieged by the Polish and Lithuanian forces. The joined army failed to capture the city, but forced Russia to return other territories and gained Livonia. The siege was the setting of this painting. The siege of Pskov from the Polish perspective: Batory at Pskov, 1581/1582. Painting by Jan Matejko in 1872. Matejko's allegoric painting illustrates the concept of romantic nationalism: the Muscovites are represented doing homage to the Polish king, which appear victorious, although in reality Pskov never fell to the Poles, as the conflict ended with negotiations before the siege was concluded.

Deutsch: Während des Livländischen Krieges (1578-1582) zwischen Iwan dem Schrecklichen von Russland und Stefan Batory von Polen-Litauen wurde Pskow von den polnischen und litauischen Truppen belagert. Dem vereinten Heer gelang es nicht, die Stadt einzunehmen, aber es zwang Russland zur Rückgabe anderer Gebiete und gewann Livland. Die Belagerung war der Schauplatz dieses Gemäldes. Die Belagerung von Pskow aus der polnischen Perspektive: Batory bei Pskow, 1579. Gemälde von Jan Matejko aus dem Jahr 1872. Matejkos allegorisches Gemälde veranschaulicht das Konzept des romantischen Nationalismus: Die Moskauer huldigen dem polnischen König, der siegreich erscheint, obwohl Pskow in Wirklichkeit nie an die Polen gefallen ist, da der Konflikt mit Verhandlungen beendet wurde, bevor die Belagerung abgeschlossen war.
