Description

<p>A photograph of a group of people by the fountain in Mickiewicz Sq. taken from the North-West side of the square. The background of the picture includes the Mickiewicz Monument, as well as (left to right) houses No. 10 and 11 (constructed in the mid-nineteenth century), as well as No. 15 on the corner of Halytska Sq. and Shevchenko Boulevard (constructed in 1874 by architect Philip Pokutyński). To the left is an old-fashioned electric lamp-post. Much like the Our Lady statue, which stood in this place between 1904 and the late 1940s, the fountain was always an attraction for people wishing to take memorial snapshots.</p>
