"The Bronze Horseman" The Bronze Horseman, an impressive monument to the founder of St Petersburg, Peter the Great, stands on Senatskaia Ploshchad (Square), facing the Neva River and surrounded by the Admiralty, St Isaac's Cathedral and the buildings of the former Senate and Synod - the civil and religious governing bodies of pre-revolutionary Russia.
In this equestrian statue Czar Nicholas I sits calmly astride his horse which is rearing in a show of controlled power. Somehow it does not have quite the same impact as the Bronze Horseman does. Technically, this statues is fascinating because it is attached to the base at only two points, the rear hooves.
