A gallant and heroic Peter the Great atop a horse is depicted in this striking statue on Decembrist (Senate) Square commissioned by Catherine the Great to honor her predecessor.

An important monument in an historically important part of the city. Both Peter and his horse are poised for action. Design happens to allow for many excellent photo angles. Of course, free to enjoy.
