EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the iconic Equestrian Statue of Peter the Great, also known as the Bronze Horseman, located in St. Petersburg, Russia. Dating back to the late 18th century, the statue was installed in 1782 and stands proudly atop a massive boulder, known as the Thunder Stone. The statue depicts Peter the Great (1672-1725) astride his rearing horse, with one hand pointing forward as if leading the way, while the other hand holds a whip. The horse appears to be rearing up, creating an impression of power and strength. The pedestal, made of an enormous and heavy boulder, was moved into position over the course of nine months by 400 men. The statue is a significant historical landmark in St. Petersburg, symbolizing the city's founder and his role as a military and naval leader. The view in this photograph also reveals part of the impressive Admiralty building, which served as the headquarters of the Russian Navy during Peter the Great's reign. The image captures the grandeur and majesty of the statue, transporting us back to the 18th century and the rich history of Russia. This photograph, taken circa 1904, is a testament to the enduring legacy of Peter the Great and the Bronze Horseman.
