Description
Nevsky Prospect is the is the main boulevard of St. Petersburg. Designed originally by Peter the Great, this historic thoroughfare has been witness to Imperial pomp, revolution, war, starvation, siege, and rebirth. Today it is once again the hub of commerce and culture. Expensive shops, churches, palaces, and cultural venues line this historic street. It is also the.home town of Vladimir Putin. This photo shows the street in 1894. This is a Photochrome from my collection. An early process for adding color to black and white photographs. They were sold to travelers and tourists as keepsakes. The Photochrome company was based in Switzerland. And their enormous collection of images is a window into life over 100 years ago.
