«Novodevichy Convent Walls & Towers Framed by Trees at Twilight»

View from the Big Pond in Novodevichy Park on the beautiful walls and towers of Novodevichy Convent with reflections on the water at twilight framed by trees in Autumn season.

The striking red and white crenellated walls and towers of the convent were built in Muscovite Baroque style in 1680s on money commissioned by tsarevna Sofia, the elder step sister of Peter the Great. The walls and towers from the side of the Big Novodevichy Pond were renovated and lit with new bright spotlights in 2015-2016.
