Russia 917–1951 presents the history of territorial development of Russian state. To recreate and visualize this history, the artist used school maps on which he marked the expansion of the Russian state on European territories throughout the millennium. The borders of Russia marked on the first map in 917 actually refer to Kievan Rus, which was later absorbed by the Principality of Moscow.
