Légende

Russian political prisoners at a railway station, 1881. Engraving from a '...Sketch of Russian political prisoners in custody at a railway station on their way to exile in Siberia, which is an incident, unhappily, that has been of too frequent occurrence in the reign of every Russian Sovereign, but upon which it would be invidious to dwell more particularly in connection with the life of one [ie Alexander II] rather distinguished from his predecessors by comparative mildness and clemency in the treatment of his Russian subjects'. From "Illustrated London News", 1881.
