Description

<p>

The Volodymyrska hill and the

monument to St. Volodymyr. The celebration of the 900th anniversary

of the baptism of Rus (1888) must have been recorded. A lot of

aristocratic ladies with umbrellas and other public, wearing their

best clothes, can be seen in the photo. Below, along Oleksandrivsky

Uzviz street, there is a line of the military in full uniform; all

this, most probably, indicates that the Emperor’s procession is

about to go this way.</p><p><i>Olga Martyniuk</i></p>
