Légende

'The Great Bell of Moscow' - Tsar Bell, 1893. The Tsar Bell, also known as the Tsarsky Kolokol, Tsar Kolokol III, or Royal Bell was commissioned by Empress Anna Ivanovna, niece of Peter the Great and is on display in the Moscow Kremlin. The bell was made of bronze and broken during metal casting and has never been rung. It's decorated with relief images of baroque angels, plants, oval medallions with saints, and nearly life-size images of Empress Anna and Tsar Alexey, who was reigning at the time the previous Tsar Bell was cast.From The Pictorial Treasury of Famous Men and Famous Deeds published by Frederick Warne and Co.
