But how can we?" exclaimed the old prince, now very much awake "How can we marry Natasha , my dear granddaughter, to a blackamoor who's been bought and sold?"

Do vou think it seemly, madam, for a Russian noblewoman to be rubbing elbows with German tobacco merchants
#Pushkin25 #AlexanderPushkin #PeterTheGreatsAfrican
Until 1697, tobacco had been banned in Russia as ungodly; the Church called it "the Devil's incense."
In the old days, a grandmother's sarafan was a granddaughter's dowry. Now it's the mistress's robe ronde one day, and a serf's the next. What's to be done? It's a tragedy. It's the ruin of our old Russian nobility.

Portrait of Alexandr Pushkin (1827). Pushkin wears a dark coat and cravat and has a black-and-red checked scarf draped over his right shoulder. He has curly hair and muttonchop sideburns, and his arms are crossed over his chest. In the background is a statue of a man holding a lyre.
