Peter I Monument in Taganrog
Peter I Monument in Taganrog, Bronze monument in Taganrog, Russia.
The statue portrays Peter I in a Preobrazhensky Regiment officer uniform, holding a spyglass while walking on a granite pedestal near the port.
The monument was commissioned for the city's 200th anniversary in 1898 and officially unveiled in 1903 after being cast in Paris bronze workshops.
Mark Antokolski designed the statue and Boris Edwards created the pedestal, representing the emperor's connection to Taganrog's naval port development.
The monument stands 8.8 meters tall, with the bronze figure measuring 3.4 meters and weighing 1,232 kilograms on a 5.4-meter granite base.
The statue changed location eight times throughout its history, including periods in a library vestibule and a regional museum before final placement.
