EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print depicts the Monument of Alexander II in Helsingfors, Finland, which now is known as Helsinki, Finland. The image, captured between approximately 1890 and 1900, showcases the monument during a time of great historical significance. Alexander II, the Tsar of Russia from 1855 to 1881, was assassinated in St. Petersburg in 1881. However, this monument in Helsingfors was erected in his honor in 1883, just two years after his death. The picture presents a picturesque and nostalgic view of the monument, with its intricate details and vibrant colors brought to life through the photographic process known as photochrom. The monument, located in the heart of Helsingfors, stands proudly against a backdrop of turn-of-the-century Finnish architecture and lush greenery. The statue of Alexander II, dressed in imperial robes, is depicted with an air of regality and grace, while the surrounding crowd adds a sense of human connection to the scene. This photograph print transports us back in time, allowing us to experience a moment in history that is both historically and culturally significant. The rich colors and intricate details bring the monument to life, making it a must-have for any history or photography enthusiast. Whether used as a conversation piece or a decorative accent, this print is sure to evoke a sense of nostalgia and wonder, transporting us to a time long past.
