Alexey, Zubov was born into the family of an icon painter of the Kremlin icon
shop, Fyodor Zubov. After their father's death, both his sons, Ivan and Alexey,
were accepted into the same icon shop as apprentices. In 1699, Alexey Zubov was
ordered to become an apprentice of the Holland publisher and etcher Adrian
Schoonebek (1661-1705), who had come to Russia on a personal invitation of Peter the Great. Etching at that time was looked upon as a means of mass propaganda, not as a kind of art, and practical Peter I encouraged etchers who depicted the most important events in the country and the revolutionary activities of its Tzar.
