Russia donates Peter the Great statue to France
(5 Oct 2017) Russia has donated a statue of Peter the Great to the French Academy of Sciences to mark 300 years since the Russian czar visited Paris in a pivotal moment in his crusade to open his country toward the West.
In unveiling the bust Thursday, Russian Deputy Culture Minister Alla Manilova told The Associated Press it's a gesture that underlines the depths of our relations.
She also called it a gesture of historic justice: While the French academy holds busts of other great world thinkers, she said, there was one who wasn't here — it was Peter.
The ceremony in the prestigious, domed Paris academy comes as French President Emmanuel Macron has cautiously sought to improve ties with Russia after years of East-West tensions over Moscow's actions in Syria and Ukraine.

....The solemn opening of the monument in the presence of representatives of all classes and members of the imperial family was held on May 30, 1912. At 8 o'clock in the morning five cannon shots sounded from the Taynitskaya tower. At 10 o'clock at the entrance to the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour began a procession led by the Moscow Metropolitan Vladimir, Emperor Nicholas II, his mother Maria Fedorovna and wife Alexandra Fedorovna. After 360 celebration canon shots and the singing of the Preobrazhensky march, a veil was removed from the sculpture. Metropolitan Vladimir sprinkled the monument with holy water and proclaimed many years to the Russian army and loyal subject. 86 wreaths were laid on the monument, including wreaths from 80 Russian and foreign deputations. After inspecting the monument by members of the imperial family, the deputy chairman of the committee on the construction of the monument was informed by the chamberlain Alexander Bulygin to read the text of the act on the transfer of the monument to the Moscow city government. In the evening, the city and the sculpture were illuminated. At the sculpture there were laced a guard of honour made up of the war veterans......
....Made in the style of monumental realism, a bronze statue stood on a stepped red granite pedestal facing the Moscow River. The guardian portrayed the king sitting on a throne in a mantle with an imperial crown on his head. In the hands of Alexander III lay the scepter and orb.
The inscription on the pedestal read: “To the pious, Autocratic Great Sovereign, our emperor Alexander Alexandrovich of All Russia. 1881-1894. In its corners stood bronze double-headed eagles with outstretched wings by sculptor Artemy Auber. The monument was located low granite balustrade, designed by Alexander Pomerantsev, down the stairs from the monument to the river.
Contemporaries criticised the monument for excessive monumentality.
In the 1917 edition of the Moscow Guidebook, the monument was described as “too huge and heavy, featuring an extraordinary amount and richness of material spent on its construction”.
The monument was destroyed in 1918.....

Russian President Vladimir Putin unveiled a monument to Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn in Moscow on Tuesday, exactly 100 years since the writer’s birth.
“His heart, soul, thoughts were filled with both pain for the Fatherland and boundless love for it. These feelings moved all his work,” Putin said.
“He clearly separated the true, real, people's Russia and the features of the totalitarian system, which brought suffering and severe trials for millions of people. But even being in exile, Alexander Isaevich did not allow anyone to scornfully, speak evil of his homeland, [he] opposed any manifestations of Russophobia,” the Russian leader added.
