The periodical press of Tsarist Russia is a fascinating mass historical source, capable of reflecting and shaping public opinion. However, despite its accessibility, good preservation, and diversity, it remains understudied as a "diary of the era," a "living reference," and a carrier of the "language of visual images." This publication aims to introduce a wide readership to a selection of 279 drawings, varying in subject matter and artistic merit, published in nine Moscow satirical and humorous magazines (1880s–early 1910s).
