EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the tranquil beauty of Senate Square in Helsinki, Finland, with the imposing statue of Emperor Alexander II as its centerpiece. Erected in 1894, the statue was built to commemorate Alexander II's re-establishment of the Diet of Finland in 1863, marking a significant milestone in Finnish history. Alexander II, also known as the "Tsar Liberator," is depicted in this image with a serene expression, his hand resting on the lapels of his military coat. The statue stands tall and proud, symbolizing the quiet resistance and perseverance of the Finnish people during a time of political upheaval. The Senate Square, surrounded by impressive neoclassical buildings, adds to the historical significance of the scene. The square, designed by Carl Ludvig Engel, was intended to reflect the grandeur and power of the Russian Empire, which ruled Finland at the time. Despite the political turmoil of the late 19th century, the statue of Alexander II stands as a testament to the enduring spirit of Finland and its people. The image captures a moment in time, frozen in history, and invites us to reflect on the rich cultural and political heritage of this beautiful Nordic country.
