Monument to Nicolas the 1st

尼古拉一世雕像是俄罗斯尼古拉一世的青铜马术纪念碑，位于俄罗斯圣彼得堡圣以撒广场。 由法国雕塑家蒙费朗制作，并于1859年7月7日揭幕，这座六米高的雕像当时被认为是技术奇迹， 它仅有的两个支撑点，是很少有的青铜雕像。

Situated on the square of Isakiev surrounded by ancient buildings, it has become a symbol of the square, the statue is more than 20 meters high, composed of the base, the bottom group carvings and the riding statue of Nikolai I in the upper part, the whole sculpture is cleverly conceived, exquisite craftsmanship, is a rare art boutique.

Built by the river, also adjacent to Neva Street, is a more distinctive place in St. Petersburg, and it is also very worth visiting. The statue of Nicholas I is located in the center of the square. The statue is cast in bronze and has a high artistic representation.

Walking through the Astoria Hotel in St. Isaac's Grand Square, that is, turning to the front of St. Isaac's Cathedral. There is a bronze horse riding sculpture of Nicholas I on the island. The design of the statue is also very clever. The horses are on the ground with their legs and support the weight of the whole statue. This is more difficult to design than the usual three or two feet and tail. Nikolay I once severely suppressed the December uprising, the Russian people did not pay much attention to him, although the sculpture is surrounded by iron fences, but it is not listed as a major attraction. This is the way to visit St. Isaac's Cathedral. Behind the bronze horse riding sculpture of Nikolay I, across the river stands the Marinsky Palace, a wedding gift from Nikolay I to his daughter, Grand Duchess Maria Nikolayevna. The blue bridge in front of the palace is the widest bridge in St. Petersburg and is worth a visit.

In Isakiev Square, compared with the Church of St. Isaac, the color, style, art is very close, but complement each other, the statue is made of bronze, representing the highest casting process and artistic level in Russia, is also a rare craft work and historical relics.
