<p><br />
The Volodymyrska hill and the<br />
monument to St. Volodymyr. The celebration of the 900th anniversary<br />
of the baptism of Rus (1888) must have been recorded. A lot of<br />
aristocratic ladies with umbrellas and other public, wearing their<br />
best clothes, can be seen in the photo. Below, along Oleksandrivsky<br />
Uzviz street, there is a line of the military in full uniform; all<br />
this, most probably, indicates that the Emperor’s procession is<br />
about to go this way.</p><p>Olga Martyniuk</p>
