1. Title: A Grand Past - The Grand Hotel Moscow and French Consulate in Rostov-on-Don (1910) This evocative black-and-white photograph captures the Grand Hotel Moscow and the French Consulate in Rostov-on-Don, Russia, during an era of grandeur and history. The image, taken in 1910, portrays the city as a bustling port and administrative center of Rostov Oblast and the Southern Federal District. The Grand Hotel Moscow, with its impressive facade, stands proudly on the left side of the image. Its elegant architecture, reminiscent of European design, reflects the cosmopolitan atmosphere of the city. The hotel's prominent position and the presence of a horse-drawn carriage in front suggest a place of luxury and sophistication. Across the street, the French Consulate, with its distinctive red awnings, adds a touch of international flair. The consulate's presence underscores the city's role as a significant cultural and diplomatic hub. The photograph also showcases the vibrant energy of Rostov-on-Don. Street tramlines run along the wet pavement, and pedestrians can be seen hurrying along the sidewalks, adding to the sense of activity and movement. Rostov-on-Don, situated on the Don River, has a rich history dating back to ancient times. Its strategic location made it an essential trading center, attracting various cultures and influences. The city's growth continued throughout the 19th and early 20th centuries, making it an essential part of the Russian Empire and, later, the Soviet Union. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the grandeur and history of Rostov-on-Don and its iconic landmarks, the Grand Hotel Moscow and the French Consulate.
