The youngest participants of the concert of creative studios of the Russian House in New Delhi could barely hold the bouquet, certificate and gift in their hands. On the eve of the May holidays, the results of their work were summed up by the ballet school and art studio in the presence of a full hall of spectators.
Students of the School of Russian Classical Ballet, under the direction of Galina Vishnyakova, a professional choreographer and former soloist of the Bolshoi Theater, demonstrated dance compositions from classical performances to the public.
Those entering the concert hall were greeted by an exhibition of drawings by students of the Art School, headed by Ekaterina Pokrovskaya.
The music studio of the Russian House (conducted by Zhanna Semenova) gifted the audience with “Polovtsian Dances” by Alexander Borodin and other compositions.

📸 The iconic WWII photo “Victory Banner over the Reichstag” is widely known across the world as a symbol of the Soviet Victory over Nazi Germany. The photo was taken on May 2, 1945, by a Soviet photographer Evgeniy Khaldei after the last German troops defending the Reichstag had surrendered.
🇷🇺 What is less known, is that the Victory Banner featured in the photo was initially raised over the Reichstag on May 1 by three Soviet soldiers - Aleksei Berest, Mikhail Egorov and Meliton Kantaria - while the fierce battle for the Reichstag was still underway. On May 2, after the fighting had ceased, the red banner was relocated to the top of the building, marking the historic Victory. Shortly thereafter, the banner was taken down and transported to Moscow, where it was kept at the Central Museum of the Armed Forces of the USSR for eternal preservation.
🌟 Today, visitors of the Central Museum of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation can only view one of the four official replicas of the Victory Banner. The original is stored in a special glass capsule in an underground vault of the museum to protect it from damage.
🇷🇺 In 2007, the Russian legislation conferred upon the Victory Banner the status of a state relic of the Russian Federation and the official symbol of the Victory of the Soviet people and its Armed Forces over Nazi Germany in the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945.

How did a Pskov church inspire Le Corbusier?
Legendary French architect Le Corbusier realized only one project in the Soviet Union - the ‘Centrosoyuz’ building in Moscow. He dreamed of rebuilding the capital by destroying old buildings, but eventually found a source of inspiration in Russian architecture for projects in his homeland.
During his visit to Russia in 1921, he made several trips around the country, including a visit to Pskov. The architect was impressed by the ancient churches, especially the Church of the Epiphany in Zapskovye.
The white stone church on the right bank of the Pskova River was built at the end of the 15th century. From there, one can clearly see the surrounding area - it is impossible to take your eyes off the majestic landscape. It is a complex architectural construction with galleries and a powerful belfry to match it.
The outline of the Pskov church can be seen in the church of Notre-Dame-du-Eau in Ronchan, which Le Corbusier worked on in the mid-1950s. The substantial concrete building, resembling a majestic ship, absorbed the architect’s most vivid impressions - from the ruins of the Greek Parthenon, the Roman villa of Hadrian to the Pskov Church of the Epiphany.
"It is often said that, when designing the church in Ronchan, Le Corbusier was inspired by the image of the Church of the Epiphany from Zapskovye. I think this is partly true, because Russian medieval architecture really made a great impression on him, as evidenced by his numerous letters and diary notes," says architectural critic Olga Mamaeva.
“But, it is hardly possible to compare these buildings directly; it would be more correct to talk about individual rhymes, which are not difficult to guess."
The French architect's masterpiece was included in the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2016, while the church in Pskov was included in it in 2019.

Where is Russia’s biggest working church bell & how heavy is it?
The biggest and most famous bell, the Tsar Bell, is, naturally, located in the Moscow Kremlin. It stands on a pedestal and actually never once rang. It was cast in 1730 by order of Empress Anna Ioannovna and weighs 202 tons. However, it was damaged before it was raised to the bell tower.
Empress Elizabeth, daughter of Peter the Great, did not restore the "tsar" bell, but decided to cast her own. The 65-ton giant successfully rang in the Trinity-Sergius Lavra from 1750 to 1930 and was heard dozens of kilometers away. But, in Soviet times, it was thrown off the bell tower and smashed to pieces.
Twenty years ago, the Lavra decided to restore the bell. The new "tsar" bell was cast in St. Petersburg and delivered by a special train to a monastery near Moscow.
On May 30, 2004, the 72-ton bell rang for the first time. Now, it is the largest working bell in Russia. Its "tongue" alone weighs 2 tons and requires six people to swing it! You can hear the dense ringing on big church holidays.
