About this work

Satirical cartoon on the contrast between the upcoming festive coronation of Tsar Nicholas II on 26 May 1896 and the deportation of political dissidents to Siberia. A long procession of prisoners is driven into the snowy land of Siberia. In the sky, a reflection of the splendor and pomp of the coronation ceremony.
