This evocative engraving, captured in the 19th century, portrays the grandeur and majesty of Palace Square in Saint Petersburg, Russia. At the heart of this urban scene lies the iconic Alexander Column, designed by the renowned French architect Auguste de Montferrand between 1830 and 1834. The column, a commemorative monument to the Russian victory in the Napoleonic Wars, stands as a symbol of resilience and defiance against the invasive forces of Napoleon Bonaparte.
