The painting of famous Russian artist Ap.Vasnetsov (Short info in English and site about him in Russian with most of his paintings - if you click the column with numbers 1-6 at the right of the site page) .
And my early spring photo of the same place, the pond near Novodevichy. Behind the pond is Moskva-river, well seen in the painting and hidden in my photo.
It is very interesting how the surroundings changed since 1926. I will keep on posting the Moscow this way, I hope you will enjoy Russian art and changes in the city.
