Painted by the talented artist Fedor Aleksandrovich Vasiliev, this watercolor on paper masterpiece measures 25.6x38 cm and is proudly displayed at the renowned Pushkin Museum in Moscow. The image captures a vibrant street scene filled with life and activity. The square is adorned with a magnificent colonnaded portico leading to the city council building, known as the Duma. In the distance stands an elegant church dedicated to St. Catherine, its towering spires reaching towards the sky. As we delve deeper into this historical snapshot of early 19th-century Russia, we are transported back in time through a sea of horses and carriages that traverse along Nevsky Prospekt's grand avenue.
