Description
This is one of many chandeliers in the exquisitely Russian Orthodox styled church, built amongst an otherwise European architectured St Petersburg on the spot where Emperor Alexander II was assassinated by a bomb thrown at his carriage in March 1881. During his reign, he had freed the Russian serfs (peasants, who were almost enslaved to their owners) and undertook a rigorous program of wide reforms, never before attempted in Russia.
