Monument to Peter I, Bronze monument in Azov, Russia.
The bronze figure of Peter I stands 3 meters tall on a 2-meter pedestal, with one hand resting on a carefully crafted iron mortar.
The monument marks the location where Peter the Great, at age 22, led the Russian forces during the successful Azov military campaigns of 1695-1696.
The statue represents Peter I looking toward the Azov Fortress, connecting the present city with its military and naval transformation under his leadership.

The granite pedestal, sourced from Ukraine, supports a bronze statue manufactured at the Mytishchi artistic casting plant for 700 million non-denominated rubles.
