EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the early 1900s in St Petersburg, Russia. The image showcases the iconic No 54 Nevsky Prospekt building, situated at the corner of Malaya Sadovaya Street. Remodeled in 1882 by renowned architect Count P. Yu Syuszor, this historic structure holds significant cultural importance. Notably, Cherkesov's bookshop once occupied this very building and made history by being one of the first establishments to sell copies of Marx's "Das Capital" in Russia back in 1872. Additionally, from 1908 onwards, Karl Bulla's esteemed photo studio found its home within these walls. The photograph beautifully captures a bustling scene on the streets of St Petersburg during that era. A horse-drawn carriage gracefully passes by as pedestrians go about their daily activities amidst a backdrop of charming storefronts and architectural marvels. The image offers a glimpse into the vibrant commerce and trade that characterized this European cityscape. The signs adorning various buildings hint at an array of businesses catering to diverse needs and interests. With its rich historical significance and architectural splendor, No 54 Nevsky Prospekt stands as a testament to St Petersburg's enduring charm throughout time. This remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate both the past glory and present beauty encapsulated within this corner of Russian history.
