A 16-meter-long mural dedicated to Nicholas II appeared in Yekaterinburg. The facade of the building of the Rostat Territorial Administration of the Yekaterinburg Land is now decorated with the image of the face of the Holy Sovereign, displayed in full height. The emperor is depicted in the ceremonial officer's uniform of a colonel; The composition of the work corresponds in the image to icons with seals, but instead of scenes from his life, it depicts the real achievements of Imperial Russia: industrialization, the Trans-Siberian railway, electrification, Zemstvo schools, aviation, etc. The dedication ceremony of the painting took place under "God Save the Tsar" during a city-wide religious procession on November 4. The consecration ceremony was presided over by Bishop Yevgeny, Metropolitan of Yekaterinburg and Verchoturye. We share in the joy of our brothers and sisters Ural. A mural, because of its expressiveness, sometimes contributes to public education even more than monuments. We prayerfully hope that the Yekaterinburg experience will become our national Orthodox trend on a Russian scale.
