EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the grandeur of Nicholas Railway Station, located in Kalanchyovskaya Square, Moscow, Russia. Designed by the renowned architect Konstantin Thon, this architectural masterpiece was constructed between 1844 and 1851 as the terminus of the Moscow-St Petersburg Railway. The station's striking clock tower stands tall against a backdrop of vibrant colors that bring life to its exterior. In this snapshot from around 1904-1905, we catch a glimpse of a bustling street scene surrounding the station. A woman elegantly walks along the road while horse-drawn carriages pass by, symbolizing an era when road transport coexisted with railways. The atmosphere is illuminated by lampposts and streetlights that add a touch of charm to this nineteenth-century setting. Over time, Kalanchyovskaya Square underwent changes and was renamed Komsomolskaya Square in 1932. Today, this iconic railway station is known as Leningradsky Rail Terminal but continues to serve as an important transportation hub connecting people across Russia. Preserved within the collection of the Russian State Film and Photo Archive in Krasnogorsk, this image allows us to travel back in time and marvel at both the architectural brilliance and historical significance of Nicholas Railway Station. It serves as a testament to Russia's rich cultural heritage and reminds us of how public transport has played an integral role in shaping our cities throughout history.
