St. George Pobedonostsov Church in Moscow.
Golden-domed church
erected in 1993-95 on the Poklonnaya Gora (Low Bow Hill). So named for
one of the highest spots in Moscow, from where a "low reverent bow" was
expected as an expression of homage. It was here also that Napoleon
waited in vain for the keys to the city in 1812. Made in Russia. Very fine detail.
Painted on enamel. Oak frame. Image size: 4¾"x2¼". Overall dimensions:
5½"x7". $129. [#RSTVCh-2]. 1 only. |
