The image displays a relief plaque mounted on a building wall. The plaque features a bust of a man with a mustache and elaborately styled hair, wearing a military uniform with epaulets and a medal. To the right of the bust, a map-like depiction shows rivers labeled "Зея", "Амур", and "Уссури", with a star symbol above. Below the bust, an inscription in Russian reads: "НИКОЛАЙ НИКОЛАЕВИЧ МУРАВЬЕВ-АМУРСКИЙ ГЕНЕРАЛ-ГУБЕРНАТОР ВОСТОЧНОЙ СИБИРИ ЖИЛ И РАБОТАЛ В ЭТОМ ЗДАНИИ В 1848-1861 ГГ. В 1858 г. ЗАКЛЮЧИЛ АЙГУНСКИЙ ДОГОВОР, УСТАНОВИВШИЙ ГРАНИЦУ РОССИИ С КИТАЕМ". This translates to: "NIKOLAI NIKOLAEVICH MURAVYOV-AMURSKY GOVERNOR-GENERAL OF EASTERN SIBERIA LIVED AND WORKED IN THIS BUILDING FROM 1848-1861. IN 1858 CONCLUDED THE TREATY OF AIHUN, WHICH ESTABLISHED THE BORDER OF RUSSIA WITH CHINA". This plaque is located at the Muravyov-Amursky Memorial Museum at 21 Dekabrskikh Sobytiy Street in Irkutsk, Russia. The building itself appears to be made of plaster or stucco, with the plaque contrasting in its stone material.
