Russian Cruiser Aurora Postcard

Russian Cruiser Aurora Postcard

A digital rendering of the Russian Cruiser Aurora moored in the Neva river at St. Petersburg. Cyrillic text reading "Крейсер Аврора" (The Cruiser AURORA) and "Санкт-Петербург" (St. Petersbutg) also appears. The Aurora is an iconic symbol of the Russian October Revolution of 1917. At the time of the earlier February Revolution the Aurora was docked in the Neva river at Petrograd (St. Petersburg), later renamed Leningrad, for repairs. Some of the vessel's crew had participated in the revolution which resulted in the abdication of Tsar Nicholas II. A revolutionary committee was created on the ship and most of the crew joined Lenin's Bolsheviks, who were preparing for a Communist revolution. At 9.45 p.m on 25 October 1917 the Aurora fired a blank round from her forecastle gun to signal the start of the assault on the Winter Palace. The Aurora has served as a museum ship and tourist attraction for millions of visitors at her present location in Leningrad (now St. Petersburg) for decades.

Bought 10 Shakespeare quotes postcards and have framed them individually and placed them around the house Love them, some are funny and some are deep and meaningful! Lovely background on some, excellent printed words. A couple of plain white cards with black print - very stricking

My order was probably an awkward one! I asked for a range of different fine-art prints, in postcard size. It was all freshly printed, delivered quickly and at a very reasonable price. Best quality matt finish I've seen on a fine-art print.

These cards are great quality, I use them as enclosure cards for my business! Hey are a little pricey but you definitely get the quality and professionalism! Repurchased a few times now and will continue to do so :). Beautiful, nice sheen on them, sharp and clear
