Public Art in Russia 

You would expect a country steeped in such history to have a magnificent array of public art but alas, with wars and revolutions, many of Russia's great statues and monuments have long since met with tragic ends. However, of what remains it isn't hard to imagine what grand past the Russian Empire revelled in. But with all that said, Russian artists are now creating a new art landscape based more on modern artistic expression than honoring their past leaders.
