The Narrative from Wikipedia (the grain of salt reference for altered history)
The Bronze Horseman is an iconic equestrian statue of Peter the Great in Senate Square, Saint Petersburg, Russia. Its creation is a remarkable story of art and engineering that unfolded during the 18th century.
Commissioned by Catherine the Great, the statue was designed to establish her connection to Peter the Great and assert her legitimacy as a ruler. She inscribed it with the Latin and Russian phrases "Catherine the Second to Peter the First, 1782," symbolizing her admiration for Peter and her own rule.
The French sculptor Étienne Maurice Falconet was recommended for this monumental task by the philosopher Denis Diderot. Falconet arrived in Russia in 1766 and began work on the statue, which would take 12 years to complete, from 1770 to 1782.
One of the most fascinating aspects of the Bronze Horseman is its pedestal, known as the Thunder Stone. Originally weighing about 1500 tonnes (the equivalent of about 26 elephants), it was carved down during transportation to its current size of 1,250 tons, making it the largest stone ever moved by humans.
The casting of the statue began in 1775, supervised by caster Emelyan Khailov. During the process, a mold broke, causing molten bronze to start fires. Khailov heroically saved the casting, and after being remelted and recast, the statue was completed.
The face of Tsar Peter on the statue was sculpted by Marie-Anne Collot, Falconet's apprentice, who was only 18 years old at the time. She used Peter's death mask and numerous portraits as references to create the tsar's likeness.
The Bronze Horseman stands as a testament to the artistic and technical achievements of its time and remains one of the symbols of Saint Petersburg. It also inspired a famous 1833 poem by Alexander Pushkin, which is considered a significant work of Russian literature.
