Image description

Wood pavements were first used in St Petersburg in the 1820s and in 1832 Nevsky Prospekt was laid with wooden planking from Palace Bridge to Anichkov Palace. From right to left the buildings are Rastrelli's Winter Palace, the Small Hermitage, the Old Hermitage Theatre by Vallin de la Mothe, and the Hermitage Theatre by Quarenghi. The pink granite quarries on the left were erected for Catherine II by de la Mothe.
