= Cannon of the Petrine Epoch on Ascension Square in Snowfall = Cast-iron cannon of the Petrine era on Ascension Square in Kolomenskoye park in snowfall. This gun with a caliber of 127-128 mm and weighing about 100 pounds ( tons) is a contemporary of the Battle of Poltava in 1709. The cannon did not participate in the legendary battle, however, it has a direct relationship to the Northern War between Sweden and Russia. This is one of two guns brought to Kolomenskoye during the reign of Catherine II from the Moscow Kremlin Arsenal. Photo #154 taken on January 11, 2020 ©2020 by Arthur Lookyanov
